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 245/40R20 99Y XL
Michelin tyres provide excellent traction and are not very noisy. It was also important for them to be Tesla-approved.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S 245/40R20 99Y XL
I changed my rear tyres from Bridgestone Potenza S001 XL 245/40R20 which had an initial tread depth of 6.1mm and have now covered 14,400 miles over a period of five years, which means the tread depth is now flush with the indicators. The Michelins are supposed to perform at least as good as the Bridgestones in both the dry and wet, and also come with a bit more tread, so considering the cost, I hope they will last longer. This is tyre is a replacement for the one that got a puncture at 16,700 miles, 18 months after the tyres were first put on. The tread depth was 8mm new, and after 2,300 miles it was down to 7mm, so the wear rate appears to be the same as the Bridgestones.

Excellent performance in summer and wet winter conditions. The fuel efficiency and low noise level are quite remarkable.
