A closer look at Michelin’s performance tyres

The right set of tyres makes a world of difference. Their effect on your comfort and safety on the roads is enormous, but not just any tyres will do. Like putting on a good pair of running shoes before a marathon, you need a set of tyres that are a perfect fit for your vehicle and the type of driving you are planning to do.

The load-bearing capacity, speed rating and physical dimensions of a set of tyres, and their suitability for your model of vehicle, are vital points to take into consideration. After that, you can think about the looks.

Primacy 4

A versatile and dependable tyre for passenger cars, the Primacy 4 is safe when new and safe when worn (2mm of tread depth). It offers outstanding braking performance in wet conditions and exceptional grip on wet roads, thanks to an advanced sculpture design and the latest-generation, high-performance rubber compound. Not only does the Primacy 4 promise a long lifespan, it does so without compromising on safety.

Pilot Sport 4

The ultra-responsive Pilot Sport 4 offers a host of performance advantages and impressive longevity, which provides an additional 2 000km of mileage over its predecessor. It’s a top performer in wet and dry braking and offers exceptionally good steering control and reactivity, hence its maxim: “From mind to road. Instantly”. This is thanks to a tread design that ensures an optimised footprint on the road, and a hybrid belt of aramid and nylon – Michelin’s “dynamic response” technology – for the seamless transmission of steering instructions.

Pilot Sport Cup 2

Its innovative asymmetrical tread design with dual-compound technology (for wet and dry conditions) gives it unique strengths and optimal grip, making it the fastest road tyre on the track. It has been put to the test in partnership with the likes of Porsche and Renault Sport to set new speed records. And with a reinforced sidewall and 20% more tread depth than its predecessor, it offers impressive longevity.
