The Michelin Pilot Super Sport is a Max Performance Summer tire originally developed as OEM for high-performance vehicles, including Ferrari models. Designed for enthusiasts who demand the highest levels of performance, safety, and durability, this tire excels in responsive handling, wet and dry traction, and high-speed stability.
Unlike many other maximum performance summer tires that wear out within 15,000–20,000 miles, the Pilot Super Sport is engineered to last up to twice as long as its competitors. This durability is achieved through Michelin’s Variable Contact Patch 2.0 technology and a unique Twaron belt, a lightweight yet ultra-strong polyamide cord that effectively manages the forces of high-speed driving.
For enhanced safety, this tire features four wide tread grooves that reduce hydroplaning risk, ensuring maximum grip in wet conditions. The asymmetric tread design provides responsive cornering and precise handling, making it an excellent choice for performance cars. Internally, the Pilot Super Sport is reinforced with dual steel belts spirally wound with a Twaron cord for increased durability and strength.
Available in 17 to 22-inch sizes, all configurations carry a Y-speed rating, ensuring exceptional performance at high speeds. The Pilot Super Sport is backed by a 30,000-mile treadwear warranty, making it a top-tier option for those seeking a long-lasting, high-performance summer tire.
