Review on MICHELIN Pilot Sport 4 245/40 R19 98Y summer by Mateusz Mate ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

The resistance to wear is not something that has been evaluated as of yet. Wear is kept to a minimum with active steering even after 8 000 kilometers. The benefits of it include: Excellent grip on dry pavement. Because it is so tenacious, the Golf VI on a collection of poor roads may lift its wheels off the asphalt before it begins to skid, even when the pavement is dry. They do not float when traveling at 100 kilometers per hour and can totally steer in ruts even when there is 3 to 4 centimeters of water present. The resistance to aquaplaning is good. Extremely quiet on smooth pavement. The side of the disk features a prominent protective mechanism for further safety. They are balanced to within 2 grams when placed on flat discs. When compared to Conti EcoContact, the steering wheel is notably heavier, the steering sharpness is increased, but in my opinion, they are even better in terms of comfort when driving on a dead road. Cons: The buzzing can be heard rather clearly on the chipped asphalt. Even at low temperatures, they immediately warm up, and after three kilometers the noise vanishes. They create noise when the temperature is below +7 degrees, but they quickly warm up even at low temperatures. Sand on the road is something they try to avoid as much as possible because it reduces the grip from phenomenal to "ordinary" and makes its presence extremely apparent. On a muddy dirt road, it's obvious that I have no control. If the various reports are to be believed, they are quite sensitive to poor storage. If they are kept without packing close to the battery, they have the potential to transform into stone "eco-rubber" the next season. After riding on them, it will feel quite strange to ride on spikes or eco-rubber because you will have become accustomed to having a decent grasp by that point.
