Pilot Sport PS2.
I've trusted Michelin tires for over 20-years, and they continue to be my top choice. Over the years, I've tried other brands across various quality ranges, but I always find myself returning to Michelin. They consistently deliver a smooth, reliable ride that makes me feel safe and confident behind the wheel. Driving becomes pure enjoyment with no concerns—just performance and peace of mind. The only downside is the price. Yes, they're expensive, but when you're driving a high-performance vehicle, that extra cost is worth every penny for the security and quality you get.

Performance that lasts has always been at the core of Michelin’s products. Long Lasting tires provide not only longevity but also robustness and safety until the end of life. It is difficult to give an average mileage due to the influence of the driving behavior and the vehicle which play a key role.
MICHELIN® Pilot® SportEV is a quiet tire thanks to MICHELIN® Acoustic technology which contributes to reduce the perceived noise in the cabin by 20%* [Internal noise measurement, done in 2016 on size 245/45 R19 on KIA Cadenza. Noise level measured on the range "170-230Hz". Results may vary according to vehicle, tire range and size, speed, and road conditions]
MICHELIN® Pilot® Sport EV is a summer tire and not marked 3PMSF (Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake). During wintertime, Michelin recommends mounting Winter or All-Season tires, such as MICHELIN® Pilot® Alpin5 or MICHELIN® CrossClimate®2.
MICHELIN® Pilot® Sport EV tire is an asymmetric tire, which facilitates the tire rotation on the car to optimize longevity.
The MICHELIN® Pilot® Sport EV tire has been developed to meet the technical demands of electric vehicles and is tailor-made for each to reach Car Enthusiast expectations. Compared to other summer tires in the MICHELIN® Pilot® Sport family, the MICHELIN® Pilot® Sport EV tire provides lower rolling resistance to maximize range, immediate grip to meet the intense demands from the transmission and better noise reduction by using MICHELIN® Acoustic technology.

>> The sizes shown are average design values for tires measured on specified measuring rim widths. Some tires may vary from this value by +/-3% of the section height (affecting overall diameter), and +/-4% of the section width.
>> Section width varies approximately 0.2" (5mm) for every 0.5" change in rim width.
>> Tread patterns are often tuned to accomodate different tire widths. Tires for a particular dimension of a given tireline may vary in appearance from the tire shown in the photograph.
WARNING: Serious or fatal injury may result from tire failure due to underinflation or overloading. To ensure correct air pressure and vehicle load, refer to vehicle owner's manual or tire information placard on the vehicle. Serious injury or death may result from explosion of tire/rim assembly due to improper mounting. Only tire professionals should mount tires and they should never inflate beyond 40 psi to seat the beads. Before mixing types of tires in any configuration on any vehicle, be sure to check the vehicle owner's manual for its recommendations.
DANGER: Never mount a 17" diameter tire on a 17.5" rim.
Inflation pressure increase must not exceed the maximum pressure branded on the tire sidewall. When a customer requests a replacement tire with a lower speed rating than the original equipment tire, you must clearly communicate to him or her that the handling of the vehicle may be different, and that its maximum speed capability is limited to that of the lowest speed-rated tire on the vehicle. Exceeding the lawful speed limit is neither recommended nor endorsed.
For high-speed driving, additional inflation pressure and possibly reduced tire loading and/or upsizing is required. In the absence of specific recommendations by the vehicle manufacturer, use the following guidelines based on those in the European Tyre and Rim Technical Organization Standards Manual.
For speeds over 160mph (100 mph), load and inflation must be adjusted according to the table below.
Y-Speed Rated Sizes:
| Maximum Speed (mph) | 118 | 124 | 130 | 136 | 143 | 149 | 155 | 161 | 168 | 174 | 180 | 186 |
| Inflation Increase (psi) | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1.5 | 3 | 4.5 | 6 | 7.5 | 7.5 | 7.5 | 7.5 |
| Load Capacity (% of max.) | 100 | 100 | 100 | 100 | 100 | 100 | 100 | 100 | 100 | 95 | 90 | 85 |
For speeds above 186 mph (300 kph), consult your vehicle manufacturer and tire dealer.
