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 235/45R20 100Y XL
On my B9 S4, I changed my prep from Michelin Pilot Sport 5 tyres to Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tyres. I definitely notice the difference. The road noise is lower, and grip is better in the wet, all of which have improved the handling of the car.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S 235/45R20 100Y XL
Exceptional in dry conditions! Their cold weather and rain performance is also really good. Unbeatable grip for summer tyres.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S 235/45R20 100Y XL
Excellent grip and smooth rolling. I like the design as well. Pretty good for rim protection too. Would recommend. Just to note, the tyre date codes show February 2026, and I bought them in June 2026.
