Product description & features

The tread design of the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tyre is designed for dry road performance in braking and steering. It has an outer dry road tread and inner wet road tread spacing. The Bi-Compound Technology from Michelin divides the compounds used on the tread into dry and wet performance. Hybrid elastomer compound is used in the outer tread while silica-rich compound is used in the inner tread. The Dynamic Response Technology incorporates aramid and nylon belts beneath the tread. This maintains the shape of the tread during high-speed driving.

There are some variants including N0, certification by Porsche and MO1, which is Benz’s certification for tyres with specifications for its cars. Respect for these marks will ensure that the tyre conforms to specification of the car. There is an XL reinforced construction for some higher fitting loads. We at Tyres.co.uk, offer the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tyres.

Highlights

  • Dry outer tread and wet inner tread
  • Different tread compounds
  • Aramid and nylon belt
  • Approvals from Porsche and Mercedes Benz

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S 235/40R20 96Y XL
From my experience, very few tyres are better than these for dry conditions on the road approved summer tyre list (apart from semi slicks)! I haven't gone on the road yet where I plan to test the limits of these tyres, but I do have track days booked and expect these tyres to perform exceptionally at those events. Unfortunately, I haven't tested these tyres in the rain on my M5 yet. This is my first BMW in over ten years without a RWD. Even in the rain, there's very little wheel spin, even with the pedal floored, the 7-speed DCT's quick fire gear shifts, and the 565bhp with 700Nm of torque!

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S 235/40R20 96Y XL
The vehicle initially came with Pirelli P Zero tyres, which I considered average. Still, I researched other companies to get better wet grip. With the Michelin P4S, safety when driving in the rain is significantly improved.
