Michelin 255/35 R20 97Y Pilot Sport 4 Ps4 (*) Xl
Avantages et inconvénients
par nos spécialistes
Le Michelin Pilot Sport 4 en dimension 255/35R20 est un pneu été ultra-hautes performances, apprécié pour son excellente adhérence et sa stabilité sur sol sec.[6][8][9] Les conducteurs mettent en avant une direction très précise et réactive, qui rend la voiture très prévisible en courbe et à haute vitesse.[6][8][9] Sur chaussée mouillée, il reste performant avec une bonne traction et un freinage efficace, même s’il a besoin, comme la plupart des pneus UHP été, d’un peu de température pour donner le meilleur de lui-même.[6][9] Pour un pneu sportif, sa longévité est jugée correcte; de nombreux utilisateurs signalent une durée de vie supérieure à celle des générations précédentes de Pilot Sport ou de certains rivaux, aidée par les technologies Dynamic Response et Total Performance de Michelin.[6][9] Sa principale limite vient de son orientation été: par temps froid, et surtout sur neige ou verglas, l’adhérence et la sécurité diminuent nettement, ce qui rend les pneus hiver ou toutes saisons plus adaptés.[6][9] Son prix se situe au niveau premium, et certains conducteurs remarquent plus de bruit de roulement sur les revêtements rugueux, un compromis souvent accepté pour bénéficier d’un très haut niveau de grip.[6][8][9] Pour les conducteurs qui roulent surtout en saison chaude et recherchent un maximum de contrôle et de ressenti au volant, le Pilot Sport 4 reste l’une des références du segment.

Experienced Aquaplaning at approx 120 kmh on Belgian highway, had approx 4mm thread. Other than this, the tires wear out very quickly. Front wheels are down to 1-2mm after 18000 km. Front wheels wear out strangely on the outside, can probably blame the car model rather than tire for this... Rear wheels still have 3mm left and even wear. Switched to Hankook to see if I experience any difference.

Very good performance on dry roads, very good performance on wet roads, very low aquaplaning on the race track, very high performance

Before that I used Continental tires. I had to replace the Conti's every two years due to my driving style. I learned from forums that the wear and tear at Michelin is significantly better. So I chose the Michelin Pilot Sport 4s. So far I can't say anything to the contrary, but I've only been using the tires for 6 months. However, what I immediately noticed was the increased fuel consumption, the louder road noise and the lack of grip on wet roads. The Continental tires (Premium Contact 6) did significantly better. On dry roads, on the other hand, Michelin tires have an advantage. Also for road holding feels better and safer. If the tire actually lasts a year longer, that outweighs the disadvantages of the Michelin. Until then, the Michelin mmn will remain behind the Contis.

I decided on this model, because when I bought them, the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 were very expensive, almost three times as much, at Michelin they went crazy. Since they were so expensive, they probably didn't sell a Pilot Sport Cup 2, and now they have dropped them quite a bit in price again. Comparing the Sport 4S with the Sport Cup 2, the 4S go very well in the dry, but they do not reach the level of the Cup 2, neither in grip, nor in line, nor in braking. But the 4S are very good tires and if your driving is normal, giving the car some joy from time to time, the 4S are going to be great for you. But if you are looking for a higher level, without a doubt I opt for Cup 2. To keep in mind, if you usually drive in areas where it rains a lot, the 4S are better in the wet than the Cup 2, despite the fact that the latter do not defend themselves bad in the wet.
