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.

Doesn't grip the road as well when wet, but does great when the road is dry.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 255/35R19 96Y XL
Amazing. These are the best tyres on the market. Their grip is phenomenal and their ride is more comfortable than other performance brands. I can't rate the Cup 2's highly enough.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 255/35R19 96Y XL
The new tyres have improved the overall handling of the car on the road. I used to have Toyo R888Rs, which are dry only, so I have been very limited in my driving during the rain. With the move to the Cup 2s I have much more confidence in the car when it's wet. Cornering and traction are both excellent, and I can't wait to see how they hold up on a track day at the end of the month.
