Product description & features

The Michelin Pilot Sport 2 is a max-performance summer tyre that prioritises steering control on dry roads. Its asymmetric tread relies on different rubber compounds for outer and inner tread roles. For dry and wet grip, respectively, Michelin’s Bi-Compound technology employs hybrid elastomer and silica compounds. Additionally, FAZ technology uses aramid and nylon cords to wrap 0 degree cords around the tyre casing to retain its shape as its speed increases.

Some variations of the Pilot Sport 2 tyre display sidewall markings as Porsche N0 or BMW star marks. These tyres meet the specifications for these manufacturers and should be matched when replacing an original tyre. Additionally, some sizes use Michelin’s ZP runflat construction which supports the tyre and the vehicle momentarily after a loss of tyre pressure. We stock the Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tyre, including the ZP runflat versions, at Tyres.co.uk.

Highlights

  • Asymmetric tread with dual compounds
  • Steering control on dry roads
  • Porsche N0 and BMW marked versions
  • Run-flat versions available

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 2 235/50R17 96Y
Outstanding service. I had a creeping rumble that I assumed was a wheel bearing problem but my mechanic thought it was the tyres. It ended up being the worn Bridgestones. Now, the car corner beautifully and the road noise is a lot quieter. I am very pleased with these tyres.

Not bad, but the PS4s gave a better experience on my previous Cayman.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 2 235/50R17 96Y
These are one of the best tyres you would expect. When it comes to powerful rear wheel drive performance cars, excellent grip is paramount. The Michelin Pilot Sports deliver on this.

The vehicle appears slightly more stable than it was. These tyres may not be the cheapest, but they are a great value offering good traction and low road noise.
