Product description & features

• Powerful braking performance
• Dynamic response technology for optimum steering
• Improved tread design for maximum confidence

Michelin have developed the Pilot Sport 5 as a summer performance tyre for drivers who need responsive handling with longer-lasting road performance. It combines sport-focused construction with tread features designed to support braking, traction and steering response.

Pilot Sport 5 tyres are available in a range of passenger car fitments.

Long Lasting Contact Patch

Michelin MaxTouch Construction is designed to distribute acceleration, braking and cornering forces evenly across the tread. This helps manage wear more consistently, supporting longer tread life while maintaining performance characteristics over time.

Wet and Dry Tread Design

The Dual Sport Tread Design uses large longitudinal grooves on the inner tread to disperse water from the contact area. Rigid outer tread blocks support grip on dry roads, helping the tyre provide stable braking and traction in varied summer conditions.

Responsive Belt Construction

Dynamic Response Technology uses a hybrid Aramid and Nylon belt within the tyre structure. This construction helps transmit steering inputs efficiently, supporting light and responsive handling.
