With the help of an asymmetric tread pattern and inner/outer differentiation, the Pilot Sport Cup 2 is built for quick and easy repetition of dry laps on the track. With Michelin’s Bi-Compound technology, the outer tread half contains high-molecular-chain elastomers to enhance cornering grip on dry surfaces. Michelin’s Variable Contact Patch 3.0 technology comes into play with the tyre’s unique tread design as it assists the Pilot Sport Cup 2 evenly distribute contact pressure during braking and cornering. The tyre’s casing is designed to reinforce the tread to protect it during high stress braking and cornering.

Others contain the K1 marking which is Ferrari’s approval. These specially marked variations were made to match the specifications of the tyre for those cars.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 245/35R20 95Y XL
I read some great reviews and decided to buy some Michelin Pilot Sport Cup2 tyres for my road-legal track car, a Mazda RX8. These tyres offer great dry road handling and responsiveness just like other ultra-high-performance tyres that I have experienced. I won't be testing these tyres on wet roads and I suspect that they may not perform will on wet roads based on my assumption of their tread design. On the track these tyres excel. I specifically compared these tyres Cup2s with the Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersports and noted a small but confident improvement in stability and grip. I would track recommend track use.

On track they are acceptable to fine, on the road they are good, and in the wet they need improvement.
