The Michelin Pilot Sport 4 245/40ZR18 (97Y) XL is a next-generation ultra-high-performance summer tire engineered for sport sedans, performance coupes, and EV/hybrid vehicles demanding exceptional grip, precision, and longevity. The Pilot Sport 4 advances Michelin's legendary Pilot lineage with improved wet and dry performance, enhanced durability, and EV-C compatibility for the demands of modern high-performance vehicles.

With a 97(Y) Extra Load (XL) rating and a ZR speed symbol indicating capability beyond 240 km/h, this tire is built for the most demanding performance applications on 18-inch fitments. Michelin's Dynamic Response Technology reinforces the belt structure for precise steering response, while the Bi-Compound tread — featuring a stiffer outer shoulder for dry cornering and a more flexible inner shoulder for wet grip — delivers exceptional performance in all warm-weather conditions. The EV-C (Electric Vehicle Compatible) designation ensures optimized performance under the higher torque and weight demands of electric and hybrid vehicles. The 20,000-mile tread warranty and UTQG 320 AA A rating reflect maximum traction performance for a dedicated UHP summer tire.

⚠️ Summer performance tire — not recommended for use below 7°C (45°F) or in winter conditions.
