Michelin launches new high performance tyre to the market

Thousands of drivers and millions of miles prove Michelin knows what you want when it comes to tyres for performance cars of all shapes and sizes.

Until now, the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S has been a go-to tyre for hot hatches, fast SUVs, EVs and all manner of quick cars, but now there’s a new tyre in town – the Pilot Sport S 5.

Designed with the same mix of precision handling and incisive control on wet or dry roads, the new Michelin Pilot Sport S 5 is for every driver who wants the best from their car.

From Ferrari and Mercedes-AMG to hot hatches like the Honda Civic Type R and Volkswagen Golf GTI, this is a tyre that will put a smile on your face every bit as curvy as the corners it’s made for.

Michelin has developed the Pilot Sport S 5 on the race circuit and it’s perfect for track days.

Most drivers will find it ideal on real roads where the Pilot Sport S 5 uses the latest technology to deliver the best grip and steering precision allied to low noise and wear.

Matching these competing elements is something Michelin does brilliantly and its tyres have won multiple awards from experts and real-world drivers alike. At the inaugural Customer Choice Awards, Michelin scooped the top prizes in both the Hot Hatch and High Performance categories. It proves the same tyre provides the best experience for a broad range of cars and drivers.

Thousands of you have all made similar comments in our reviews, with Michelin scoring five-star ratings from many drivers of everything from Aston Martins to Volkswagens.

The Pilot Sport S 5 promises an even better level of enjoyment as it embraces Michelin’s Dual Sport Tread Design with Bi-Compound Technology. That’s a high-tech way of saying this tyre keeps on working whether you’re driving on a race track or heading down a sopping wet motorway.

The end result is a tyre that lets you drive confidently and safely in every condition, and you can enjoy the car’s performance with complete control and satisfaction.
