The Michelin Pilot Super Sport HN is a tyre designed to meet Hyundai's performance standards, that includes some ultra high-performance summer tyre aspects. It has a Bi-Compound tread with an Asymmetric design. This separates dry and wet-condition rubber. The outer tread uses Michelin's Le Mans rubber, while the inner wet-condition tread elastomer. Below the tread, Michelin uses high-tensile aramid fibre bonded with Twaron in a belt under variable tension. This can restrict and control the growth of a tyre that is racing and travelling at constant high speeds, due to the belt's construction and the variable tension to which it is exposed.
The sidewall's HN is Hyundai's performance division's mark of tyre approval and lets the consumer know that Hyundai's performance division approved the construction of that size and type of tyre. For the consumer to know that it is the specified version, the replacing tyre must also have HN. To maintain the specified version of the tyre, the new tyre must carry the specified mark. The Pilot Super Sports was replaced by Michelin with the Pilot Sport 4 S in the road range. We stock the Michelin Pilot Super Sport HN at Tyres.co.uk.
