The Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 is a tyre that was designed for high-performance and responsiveness on dry roads. It also stays useful in the cold and wet. Solid blocks in the outer edge of the tyre help cornering and dry road traction. Four grooves in the tyre remove water. Michelin's Helio+ Technology combines silica and sunflower oil which keep the tyre flexible in the cold. Variable Contact Patch 2.0 changes the contact patch when the tyre is accelerating, braking, and cornering in order to optimise pressure distribution over the tread.
The A/S 3 was the first tyre in the Pilot Sport A/S line and was later succeeded by the Pilot Sport A/S 3+ which has an updated tread compound. Some ZP versions use Zero Pressure construction and have reinforced sidewalls which support the vehicle after losing air. At Tyres.co.uk, we sell all versions of the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 including the ZP run-flats.
