Speaking of Summers. Does anyone have first hand experience with Michelin Pilot super sports in this climate? Some people say they're fine and some say they turn into hockey pucks. I'm so sick and tired of my winters, i want to switch up as soon as possible.

Depends on the vehicle & the size being run... What I just mentioned above is how it is for me but I'm in a high torque RWD with fairly wide fitment in front which is probably the worst to use in these conditions also when you go over -2.5 camber is begins getting crazier.. I don't DD my car otherwise I'd be dead by now.
They don't "turn into hockey pucks" but they do formula D on every corner on colder rainy evenings (5-10 celsius) the cops call this "Stuntin". They fall off their grip capabilities around 10-15 celsius. They grip or begin to work how they should around 15-30 celsius so its a good summer tire; although off the line grip isn't the best. Treadwear has been pretty good ( I abuse mine quite a bit and still have a lot of tread ). They are very quiet for a sporty tire. Road feel & feedback is great. You can feel when they are reaching limits. They are still just a 300TW street tire at the end of the day. Also, If you want a tire for DD year round & still want to drive like a cock or sporty in summer then you'd probably like the AS3's for our climate conditions as they will do much better in the cold and rain and hold up very well in the summer. My next tire will be something like RE11 I think because i want more off line grip and more grip in summer driving and I dont need to DD.

TLDR: A very good summer street tire
Sorry i forgot to mention that i actually have the tires. I just haven't put them on this early before. My cars a FWD, 3500 pound, 4 door, VTACK monster . I guess i should be alright. I do drive quite a bit at night on the highway though. Ill probably wait it out another 2 weeks.
