The Michelin Pilot Sport Tyre Range

The story of Michelin's Pilot Sport tyre range is all about being super smart, super fast, and super safe.

From the start, these tyres have been leading the way, showing everyone how it's done when it comes to tyre tech.

The Road Tyres

Michelin Pilot Sport

The first-ever Pilot Sport tyre was a total game-changer. It was made for sports cars and high-speed cars, giving them amazing control, grip, and the ability to perform like never before. This tyre started a new chapter in tyre tech, mixing speed, precision, and quick responses in a way we hadn't seen before.

Today, you can still buy this tyre in a select number of 16 inch tyres.

Michelin Pilot Sport 2

Next up, the Pilot Sport 2, went even further. It had a better compound mix and tread pattern, which delivered top-notch grip, especially when going travelling at high speeds. It showed how committed Michelin is to making the driving experience better with the latest tyre tech.

With over 20 tyre sizes still in stock for this tyre, the Michelin Pilot Sport 2 is still a favourite for some customers. It comes in 16 inch, 17 inch and even 19 inch tyre sizes.

Michelin Pilot Sport 3

Then came the Pilot Sport 3, which took a slight turn towards being more eco-friendly without losing the sporty edge. This tyre was all about lowering resistance to help try and lower the fuel consumption of cars. However, it did not lose the great grip and handling, especially on wet roads. Making it a great choice for all kinds of weather and roads.

A stalwart favourite for many, we have over 1,300 tyre reviews at the time of writing on this tyre.
