Fitted Michelin Super Sports to my JCW Coupe today...

...and they've improved the car just as I'd hoped. The original Dunlop SP Sport 01 RFTs were showing their age a bit with a lack of grip in all conditions, plus tremendous road noise on rough surfaces.

I've only covered around 20 miles on the Michelins but they already appear to grip much better, the road noise is there but not as severe etc. Over bumps, the car is more controlled and it does't sound like the wheels are going to come through the floor!

Around a sharp bend earlier, I did feel the tread move around a bit but then I'm not surprised as there's so much tread from new! More than 6mm I'd say. So all in all, very happy so far and I'd expect they'll improve as I put more miles on them..

I was exactly the same. I remembered my last one being harsh over bumps but this one seemed fine in the south of england; then we drove back up north and the roads seem MUCH worse up here! The tyres have solved all that though luckily.

I've just purchased EBC discs and pads all-round for it.

Very good tip, thanks. I am noticing the torque steer is much mor pronounced so it makes sense. I'll drop 5 psi at a time and try it.

I certainly have... Bought two canisters for £5 in Costco yesterday. Can't recommend the michelins enough!! Amazing in the wet as well.
