Well-balanced performance. Good handling response in the dry. Optimum hydroplaning resistance. Precise steering response. Low rolling resistance. High price. Exemplary.

Great handling on dry pavement. Precise steering response. High level of safety and good handling response on wet pavement. Short braking distance on wet and dry pavement. Low rolling resistance. High price. Exemplary.

Excellent dry handling. Precise steering response. Good handling on wet surfaces. Short braking distance on dry and wet surfaces. Low rolling resistance. High price.

Predictable behavior and precise steering response to the driver’s actions on dry pavement. Relatively low lateral aquaplaning resistance. Reduced shock-absorbing properties. Very good.

Good handling response in the dry. Poor riding comfort. Grip threshold on wet pavement achieved too soon. Good.

Short braking distance on wet and dry pavement. Low rolling resistance. Insufficient handling response in the wet.

The Michelin Pilot Sport 4 is a tyre with almost no weaknesses, it has excellent grip in all conditions, good aquaplaning resistance, and a low noise. The only negative is that it's not the most responsive of tyres during the dry handling test.

Positive: Excellent rounded tyre with almost no weakness, excellent grip in the dry and wet, short braking distances and safe balance.
Negative: Not the most sporty feeling of the UHP tyres.

The Michelin Pilot Sport 4, which slightly lacked steering precision while cornering, occupied the fourth line in the final standings.

Very balanced tire. Top grade in terms of wear. Good on dry and wet roads. Good in fuel consumption.

The shortest stopping distance in the dry. High resistance to straight hydroplaning.Lateral Aquaplaning

Pros: prominently strong grip both on wet and dry pavements, high hydroplaning resistance, the shortest dry stopping distance on test. Cons: No prominent limitations detected, for the sole exception of the increased rolling resistance.

The third place was scored by the leader in braking efficiency during the qualification round, the Michelin Pilot Sport 4. In the final round, in addition to the shortest braking distance, this model demonstrated crisp steering response and excellent handling capabilities. The Michelin Pilot Sport 4 lost its chance to make a clean sweep of the competition because of its high price and insufficiently competitive treadwear.

Exceptionally well-balanced performance, great results on wet pavement, good results in the dry, low fuel consumption.

Invariably good results in all of the disciplines. Great handling in the wet and in the dry.

Premium sports tire with stable side guidance and safe handling in all weather conditions, best safety reserves with aquaplaning, good comfort. High Price level, only average cornering on a wet track.

Best driving dynamics on test, and in the top 3 in almost all tests. Excellent wet and dry handling, low wear. High purchase price, average rolling resistance.
