LOVE MY MICHELIN TIRES

Since upgrading to michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 Tires on my Ford FGX XR8 I can honestly say WOW. These Tires have transformed the way I drive by giving me the confidence to push the car beyond limits I thought possible. The grip is phenominal when negotiating tight corners making the car handle like it was on a slot car track. The ride is good on normal roads and I can't wait to take it on the track to see how much more I can push it. Tire wear is surprisingly good, even with spirited driving so that's a huge bonus.

No use on the front of a JCW on track days. Front left delaminated after 128 miles. Very poor in the damp, no grip in the wet.

The most useable semi slick on the market !

The Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 Connect is a fantastic tyre. It’s performance is very impressive considering how drive able the tyre is day to day. On track the tyre holds up very well, supplying ample grip and seems to be lasting considerably longer than other semi slicks I have experienced. The thing that surprised me the most was it’s performance in the wet, I would say it has comparable wet performance to a Michelin Pilot Super Sport, if not better, especially once the tyre has built up a bit of heat ! Overall, it’s the perfect tyre if you want a capable semi slick and don’t want to worry about changing your tyres every time it rains.

Great Tyre

Love this tyre

Game changer

I have decided to purchase these tyres for my Golf Mk VII GTI TCR after not beeing fully satisfied with driving behaviour of the vehicle during spirited driving with factory fitted tyres from other manufacturer. As I had good experience with MIchelinCup 2 tyres mounted on my Porsche 991.2 GT3 I decided to purchase set of Pilot sport Cup 2 Connect tyres. I was ready to sacrifice some riding comfort and performance on wet surface. After fitting the tyres I was positively surprised. The behaviour of the car improoved in all areas on dry surface. Traction, lateral grip, braking performance and steering feedback improoved radically. Theese tyres give me so much confidence during spirited driving. And I was surprised that there is no trade off in driving comfort or noise. For me game changer and leading product in its class. Best tyre I have ever had fitted on my vehicles.
