Product description & features

The Michelin Pilot Sport 3 is a summer performance tyre that balances wet-weather performance and tread-life. It uses an asymmetric tread along with Michelin Anti Surf System that helps clear standing water at speed. The Anti Surf System shapes the grooves and channels in the tread to quickly divert water away from the tyre tread in case of heavy rainfall. It features a rubber compound called Green Power Compound that helps enhance wet grip and lowers rolling resistance.

The next generation of the Pilot Sport tyre range is the Pilot Sport 4. The self-supporting tyre sidewalls in the ZP runflat versions are designed to carry the vehicle in case of a tyre puncture or loss of pressure. Here at Tyres.co.uk, we readily stock the runflat ZP versions of Michelin Pilot Sport 3 tyres.

Highlights

  • Asymmetric tread pattern
  • Water-clearing tread channels
  • Green Power rubber compound
  • ZP run-flat versions available

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 3 215/45R16 90V XL
Initially these tyres seemed great like the ones I have had in the past, but now I have seen a bulge on the side wall of one of the tyres. This will probably lead to a blowout if the issue is not sorted. I have done 4,000 miles on these tyres and now have to return them and I might have to pay for the return myself!

I am very happy with these tyres! The car feels more stable and more connected to the road. I have also noticed improvements in stopping power, grip, and acceleration. These tyres are good in wet conditions and dry conditions!
