Ranked #3 of 11
Securing a commendable 3rd place out of 11 contenders, the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S delivered an outstanding performance, earning a final rating of "Very good". This tire showcased remarkable capabilities, particularly in areas vital for safety and control. Its strengths were highlighted by exceptional wet braking and brilliant aquaplaning safety, alongside its prowess on dry surfaces with solid braking, excellent precision, and minimal sensitivity to load changes. Notably, it excelled best in disciplines such as aquaplaning across and along the direction of travel, and dry braking, underlining its balanced performance across diverse conditions. However, it wasn't without its shortcomings; the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S faced criticism for a somewhat unclear balance in wet handling and was noted for elevated rolling resistance and noise levels. Despite these minor drawbacks, its overall capabilities solidified its position as a top choice in the category.
