Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 Plus, 255 /40 R19 100Y XL BSW
For uncompromising all-season performance, the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ is the tire taking the podium when you demand ultra-high performance grip in both wet and dry weather.
Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 Plus FEATURES
The Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ offers all-season traction in addition to aggressive dry road-holding performance. Long story short, it makes your high-powered coupe, sedan, CUV or sports car actually usable when the road isn’t totally dry—all while keeping the fun factor in play when it is.
Carrying on the legacy of the Michelin Pilot Sport A S 3, the Michelin Pilot Sport A S 3 Plus consistently places high on reviews and comes packed with many of Michelin’s cutting-edge features that it incorporates into all of its ultra-high performance tires while adding a few all-season features along the way.
Michelin-specific features of the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ include:
- Michelin’s Variable Control Contact Patch 3.0 distributes the stress and pressure of hard cornering across the A/S 3 Plus’ contact patch for more exacting and predictable control (which also helps prolong everyday treadwear).
- Its advanced Extreme Silica+ tread compound is where Michelin’s industry-leading research and development meet the road.
- 3D sipes and oversized tread grooves whisk away moisture and prevent hydroplaning.
- Its Helio+ Technology gives the A/S 3+ a 28% improvement over the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 on snow and in cold weather.
- Hidden biting edges in its tread contact patch create grabbing traction action on loose snow for faster acceleration and braking.
Depending on where you live, the Pilot Sport A/S 3+ might be the ultimate tire for your high-powered or sporty daily-driver.

But if you want the most robust protection for your new Pilots available, Discount Tire’s exclusive Certificates will cover them on down to 3/32” of wear—regardless of the amount of miles you put on them (even if you hit the track or drag strip).
In the extremely unlikely event they fail, you’ll get a brand-new replacement if it can’t be repaired.
(You can add our Certificate coverage in the cart of your order.)
For uncompromised performance with all-season reliability, the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ is the tire that gets you and your sports car as close to having your cake and eating it as possible.

Great tires, unfortunately if you want this particular tire in this size, they are on back order.

Great tire in the "run flat" performance catagory.
GTO
Being that you have asked me twice for feedback I’ll give it to you. Buying tires from you have been a very negative experience! The guy that ordered the tires apparently made mistakes. He ordered 3 sets of tires to it right, and it’s still not right!
