MY17 S63AMG - MBUSA Buyback. MY16 SL63 - Sold MY19 W213 E63s. 2020 W213 E63s Wagon
Can’t wait to try them. PS4s are still the best all performance tires on the market, but always look forward to trying something better.

Anyway, it will be interesting to see how the 5S does.

Confusion reigns with tyres , oil and alike .
Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S replaced Michelin Pilot Supersport .
Michelin Pilot Sport 5 is a replacement for Michelin Pilot Sport 4 .
Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S is a UUHP tyre .
Michelin Pilot Sport 4 & 5 are UHP .
There is a direct relationship with the firmer construction of the UUHP 4 S and better dry track lap times , however the trade off is comfort , noise and more importantly not as good in wet handling .
You can't have both...
In a 14 tyre tyrereviews test spanning mainly UHP and a few UUHP .
Dry handling
3rd Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S
5th Michelin Pilot Sport 4
Wet handling
1st Michelin Pilot Sport 4
8th Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S

Bottom line…these sound kind of perfect for our cars. If the 5 outperforms the 4S, then I’m willing to sacrifice a smidgen of dry handling performance of the forthcoming 5S, in exchange for a smoother and quieter ride. Hope they are released in our sizes, because if my 21 is delivered (next week) with Pirelli’s i’ll be ordering these sooner than later and binning those garbage pzeros.

Well the new
Has just smashed the does very well in dry but not wet usual findings of UUHP tyres .
The Continental achilies heel has always been fast wear so we'll have to wait to see if that's been addressed .
