What are you comparing them with?

They don't have a bad reputation - but whether or not I'd buy them would depend on what else was available, and at what price.

I've had them on my car for around 8 months. (245s and 285s.)

They handle fine in the wet. Dry traction is good. Only have about 6k miles on them so I can't comment on tread life yet. Can't possibly be worse than the Michelins though.
 
Thanks for this link! It solidifies my option to do what I can HONESTLY recommend (and what I’ll be doing once these Pilot Sports are finally gone), the Continental Extreme Contact DWS. I have owned several of this model on 3 different cars and I won’t stray for making another purchase! These are hands down the most confident best all around tire I’ve used. They are sure footed in snow and rain, and wear real close to the rating displayed. Never an issue/regret. Thanks; one less thing I’ll have to research later. Good luck in your decision. db

I had the Contis on my last X6 and they were excellent ........................but the OP is in Florida , I doubt an UHPAS tire is what he needs .................
 
What is people's general concern with the Pilot Super Sport / Sport 4s? I got these for the last 1-2 years on my Subaru, and outside of road noise, they were amazing - super grip, great wear. Better wear then the Pilot Sport A/S I had before..

Speed rated at 168 MPH. Should be good enough, right? But I like "Y", 186 MPH.

Are the Pilots more noisy than the Nittos?
 
On previous sport cars ive owned, always went with Comp TAs and Toyo Proxes 1. Have always heard Nittos are great, so wanted to give them a try.
 
Also look at Falken Azensis FK510 very good option for a performance tyre & pricing is also comparable.

20190329_155021.webp Tires I got were called General GMax and they are a performance all season. Love love love them. Same sizes as factory and they cost me 800 bucks mounted out the door. Better road noise than the stock tires if you can belive that! Also great grip and wet handling!
 
At 6k miles, my OEM Pilots are going to need replacing soon. My daughters Challenger came with BS G-Force Comp-2 A/S and we've been very happy with them, on the 4th set I think. Mileage is not great but the warranty means I pay a crapload less than retail to replace them. Definitely going to consider them for the Stinger.
 
Agree, solid option all up. Thanks
I’ve got just over 25K’s on the clock & my Conti’s are almost spent, I’m going with the Falken Azensis FK510, these have performance ratings up there with Conti’s & Michelin’s but also have excellent wear properties.
I’ve used Falken’s before & have found them to be a good all round performance tyre & pricing is also competitive compared to the competition.

Agree. I also have a Staggered setup and with 6500 miles on them, they still have a lot of life left in them.
