Michelin 245/40 R21 100Y Pilot Sport 4S Xl
Avantages et inconvénients
par nos spécialistes
Le Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S est considéré comme l’un des meilleurs pneus été max-performance du marché. Les conducteurs saluent surtout l’adhérence énorme et la grande stabilité sur le sec, avec une direction très directe et beaucoup de confiance à haute vitesse comme au freinage appuyé. Sur le mouillé, il offre également des performances remarquables grâce à une bonne évacuation de l’eau et une forte traction, ce qui le rend populaire aussi bien sur route que pour quelques journées circuit. Pour un pneu très sportif, la longévité est jugée étonnamment bonne par de nombreux utilisateurs, et le confort ainsi que le bruit restent acceptables à agréables. En contrepartie, son prix est nettement supérieur à celui de nombreux rivaux, et en cas de conduite très sportive ou de roulage fréquent sur circuit, l’usure peut s’accélérer. C’est en outre un pur pneu été, donc inadapté aux températures très basses ou à la neige. Pour les acheteurs recherchant des performances maximales et une direction très précise, et prêts à payer plus, c’est un choix de premier plan.

Basé sur 38 avis
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.
