Ranked #2 of 5
Securing a commendable second place out of five contenders, the Michelin Pilot Sport 5 established itself as a formidable option in this evaluation, earning a "Very good" final rating. This tire distinguished itself with its exceptional control, attributed to its high grip levels on both wet and dry roads, alongside achieving the shortest dry braking distances. Notably, it also excelled in maintaining low rolling resistance and external noise levels. However, it was not without its drawbacks; the Michelin Pilot Sport 5 showed moderate protection against aquaplaning in curves and was criticized for occasionally harsh ride quality. Despite these minor issues, its performance was balanced and very secure across wet and dry conditions. Remarkably, the tyre outperformed in several disciplines, shining in aquaplaning - longitudinal, dry braking, dry handling, dry lane changing, wet circle cornering, wet handling, and objective wet handling, making it a top choice for those prioritizing safety and performance.
