A little more on the Pilot Sport 4S - starting to break the tires in... Even going from 18 to 19, these are softer on expansion joints, tar strips, pot holes and most types of bumps than the Conti SSR RFs that come with the car. The highway ride is luxury - very smooth with still good left right response and excellent tracking. I have not noticed any wind drift on the highway, so it seems the sidewalls have some good lateral stability like a RF does. These are also the *roundest* tires I've had on a vehicle - zero vibration at any speed, and they all road force balanced to under 10lbs. Steering feel still lacking on the F10, but definitely a step better with these tires, the return to center is a little more natural feeling and not as notchy. The overall noise level might be a smidgen higher than a young SSR RF, but its close and not very noticeable and not humming or thrumming or any objectionable noise. These are a great upgrade to any stock F10 that will not see snow and are soft enough to not upset the wife and controlled enough to have fun.
