I recently put 2 Michelin Pilot Super Sport tyres on the front of my MINI. Very good dry grip, thankfully not had much wet yet (sunshine) to test them on some moisture.

They are really excellent in the wet as well Oliver , have been using them with a few years and never had a 'moment' wet or dry .

They are outstanding tyres !!
Anyone who thinks tyres are just 'black round things' and anyone will do needs to do a comparison drive with a set of these on. Night and fecking day difference !
