I have not. My closest comparison to those that I've owned would be Bridgestone RE01R's.
On another forum I'm on there are several that regularly track (not autox) their cars on these tires and are nothing short of absolutely pleased with them. They have insane wet grip, great dry traction, great communication and best of all reasonable wear rate. Michelin claims this tire is closer in grip level to the Pilot sport cups than the PS2's they replace. Those are R compound tires! Regardless, I'm pretty anxious to get them on and find out. I'll post an in depth review when I do.

Typical reaction in the thread was the compound is too hard to have exceptional grip.
I'm sure they're a great compromise and a good all around tire, but RS3 or Star Spec grip with a UTQG rating of 300 AA A seems unlikely. People race on RS3s and Star Specs for a reason: They win.
