Maximised Longevity

New technology has boosted its tyre life, allowing you to clock in more mileage without sacrificing motorsport-inspired performance.

Responsive Steering

Your driving inputs get immediate feedback, just like on the racetrack. You steer, and the tyres follow with a crisp and dynamic quality.

Enhanced Safety

This tyre ensures excellent grip in dry conditions while optimising grip and braking on wet pavement.

Performance as Sleek as Its Aesthetics

Its belt, made from nylon and aramid, effectively translates your steering demands, giving you the performance you crave.

The tire makes contact with the road surface more efficiently, giving you stability.

An inner tread with large grooves and voids channels out water, improving grip on wet roads.

Its outer tread displays stiff blocks, guaranteeing dry grip, traction, and braking.

A matte-black aesthetic gives your ride a sleek look, hinting at its motorsport performance.

Compare and Rate Your Tyre on its Treadwear, Traction, and Temperature

340 A A

•  340 Treadwear:
This grade represents the tyre's expected life/duration, ranging between 100 to 1000. Usually, the higher the treadwear rating, the longer the tyre life.

•  A Traction:
This grade represents the tyre's capability to stop on wet asphalt and pavement. Ratings are expressed in letter form, with AA being the highest and C as the lowest.

•  A Temperature:
This grade represents the tyre's heat resistance ability, with A as the highest and C as the lowest. Heat build-up causes the rubber to break down faster, which can cause blowouts. The higher the temperature rating, the longer the tyre life and the higher the speed rating.

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6

The Michelin Pilot Sport 5 gives better dry handling and braking but seems to be equally matched with the Goodyear tyre in wet performance. Want a quieter ride? The Eagle F1 Asymmetric creates less on-road noise.

Hankook Ventus S1 Evo 3

This tyre fares better in handling in both wet and dry conditions. However, the Michelin tyre has shorter braking distances–an important safety feature.

Yokohama Advan Sport V105

The Pilot Sport 5 provides a more comfortable ride and less rolling resistance than this tyre. Still, if affordability is a priority, the Yokohama Advan Sport V105 is the better choice.

Futuristic

With their eye on the future, Michelin continuously explores new ways to produce tyres, including 3D printed tyres, airless tyres, 100% puncture-free tyres and other customisable tyre options that will maintain the robust construction and reliability they are known for.

Lifestyle

Michelin Tyres Australia continues to support Tyre Stewardship Australia (TSA) by reducing the volume of end-of-life (EOL) tyres disposed of in the landfill or dumped illegally which negatively impacts the environment. As a brand, it is also still running the Michelin Star Guides.

Motorsport

Michelin is the tyre partner for the 100% electric ABB Formula-E championship and has triumphed numerous times at the Le Mans 24-hour race. It is also the sole tyre supplier to MotoGP™, the premier class of motorcycle Grand Prix racing.

Michelin Pilot Sport 4S

Michelin Primacy 3 ST

Specifically engineered for Asia Pacific’s weather and driving conditions, this tyre offers superior braking performance and ride comfort. It’s an original equipment tyre for several models from Audi, BMW, Honda and Mercedes Benz.
