About This Tire

The Michelin Latitude Sport 3 295/40R20 is a summer tire, designed for high-performance SUV and crossover drivers who prioritize exceptional dry traction and responsive wet weather handling in everyday driving. Its asymmetric tread design and advanced compound focus on maximizing grip while maintaining fuel efficiency through low rolling resistance technology.

This third-generation tire features variable thickness sipes that reduce tread block deformation and an increased void ratio compared to its predecessor for improved wet grip. The internal structure includes two high-tensile steel cord belts for stability, while Michelin's Green X branding indicates eco-focused manufacturing methods. Driver feedback points to outstanding performance in both wet and dry conditions, with solid comfort levels and predictable response, though treadwear longevity rates as moderate.

Compared to all-season alternatives, it prioritizes maximum warm-weather performance and handling precision over year-round versatility. Overall, it's a solid choice for performance SUVs and crossovers used primarily for spirited driving and daily commuting in warmer climates.
