About This Tire

The Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV 255/50R19 is a summer tire, designed for performance SUV and crossover drivers who prioritize exceptional grip and responsive handling in warm weather conditions. Its tread design and compound focus on maximizing traction in both wet and dry conditions through an asymmetric pattern with functional elastomers and thin silica technology.

The tire features a summer-focused compound that delivers strong lateral grip through high pattern stiffness and rigid construction, while optimized notches enhance dry braking performance. The inboard tread section includes wider circumferential grooves and deep straight channels for effective water evacuation, paired with a greater pitch count for improved wet traction and reduced noise levels. Driver feedback points to outstanding wet and dry performance with excellent comfort levels, making it well-suited for spirited driving without sacrificing daily usability.
