I have 45K on mine and plenty of meat left on them. I do have a huge blister on the sidewall of one now - thanks to all the potholes this year in the northeast. But I have to say I really never like the tires - dangerous in snow, and just not quite grippy enough in the rain for me.

Thanks bbf. And fair enough about links: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/surveyresults/surveydisplay.jsp?type=UHPAS http://www.michelinman.com/tire-selector/vehicle/2010/Ford/Fusion/SEL%20w|Sport%20Pkg./OE/BNW/pilot-sport-a-s-3/tire-details#user_tire_reviews_and_ratings this one rates it high: http://www.mavistire.com/ProductCart/pc/_tirerankings.asp?ld=SL&sr=V&tt=All%20Season&gs=2254518&frb=B rated high until snow is mentioned: http://www.tirerack.com/survey/SurveyComments.jsp?additionalComments=y&commentStatus=P&tireMake=Michelin&tireModel=Pilot%20Sport%20A%2FS%203%20%28W-%20or%20Y-Speed%20Rated%29&partnum=245YR8PSAS3XL# I really like the tires, but the Goodyear RS/A's have scared the crap out of me a few times during this horrible winter. BTW been a member since I got the car (while doing research on the terrible transmission of the 2.5 liter engine). Except for the transmission I love the car!!

I have been reading reviews at several sites and almost all say that the Pilot Sport A/S3 are terrible in the snow - great dry and wet though. That to me sounds like they are similar to the stock Goodyear RS/A which are dangerous in the lightest of snow. I love Michelins, but I cannot pull the trigger on these. And maybe I am reacting to the worst winter in decades in the Northeast. I am now leaning towards the Continental ExtremeContact DWS.
