Review on MICHELIN Pilot Super Sport 275/35 R19 100Y summer by Stanislaw Dwojak ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

In the spring, I purchased a set of this rubber, and with a load index lower than recommended by the auto manufacturer - 88 instead of 92, but suitable for the actual weight distribution of the car (I weighed the car on sports scales), because. I was looking for the lightest tires to reduce unsprung masses, while with the maximum parameters for the hook - the car is front-wheel drive and quite powerful. At first I was surprised how the rubber protrudes beyond the disc - on an 8" wide disc 225, the rubber "sticks out" almost 1 cm outward, while it looks great - and protects the disc as much as possible. The weight of 225\40\ZR18\88Y tires is 9.2 kg - this is an excellent indicator, together with a 7.5 kg disk, the wheel turned out to be as light as possible. But the weight of the rubber is even more important than the disc - because. it is as far from the center as possible, centrifugal force affects the most. The rubber wore out pretty quickly, but only on the drive axle - and with my driving pace, this is not surprising. I ordered a pair of cylinders with a load index of 92Y XL, we'll see how it shows itself, I assume that wear will be slower. By the way, the cylinders turned out to be Hyundai N homologated Finally, I "caught" pits many times, asphalt influxes and other delights of the Crimean roads, I thought that the wheels would go to the trash - but no hernias and other things! In general, I recommend, rubber is worth the money.

Pros
  • - Hell of a hook. Just hellish. - Noise in moderation, no discomfort experienced - Very durable - hit many times - Awesome side protecting from the curb! - Very light - on request "pilot super sport weight" in Google, the first link is a detailed table with all the parameters for all dimensions - Works until the very end - even when the cord inside on the sidewall became visible (camber on the front axle -1.5 °) and the tread was already far beyond the limits of maximum wear - the grip in dry weather remained like new rubber, and even clung to wet!
Cons
  • - Gobbled up a set on the drive axle for 7000 km in rags. But 4000 km is in serpentines, and in general in the "gas to the floor" mode. At this rate, any rubber will not last long. - The rubber almost fell off the sides - not critical for the rubber itself, glued it in place)
