Product description & features

The two main features of the Michelin Pilot Sport 4, a summer max-performance tyre, are its wet braking and steering responsiveness. It uses a tread design that features a two-part tread and an aramid and nylon belt. In the outer tread, and in the inner tread, are the two different forms of Bi-Compound Technology. One uses a dry grip rubber with a hybrid elastomer, and the other uses a silica blend with a wet grip elastomer. Michelin’s Dynamic Response Technology uses an aramid and nylon belt in combination with the tread design to convey the driver’s steering inputs into the road while ensuring that the tread remains stable during the steering load.

Some variants of the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 mark the sidewall with a BMW Star Mark or MO (Mercedes-Benz Original) marking indicating they were made to the specifications of each respective car maker. Michelin also makes the Pilot Sport 4 SUV targeted at lighter SUVs and crossovers and made with a casing that accommodates the weight of heavier vehicles. Considering this, we sell the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 here at Tyres.co.uk.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 4 315/40R21 115Y XL
Changed to run-flat tyres due to job location change and no spare tyre. Original equipment recommendation for the car from the manufacturer is Michelin Pilot Sport 4. They do feel a bit firmer to ride on, but the grip in the wet and dry is as good as it was before.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 4 315/40R21 115Y XL
These tyres are excellent for summer. As with any summer tyres, when the temperature drops, you should switch to winter or all season tyres. Even with less tread, they aquaplane very well, indicating a good tread design.
