Pilot Super Sport Key Design Elements

The Twaron®Belt
At veryhigh speed, The Twaron® belt ensures greater stability. Thevariable tension design of the belt grips the centre of the tread more tightlythan the shoulders. Because of this centrifugal force is better controlledand forces encountered by the tyre are distributed more evenly.

Dual-Compound Technology
The tyrecomprises a novel distribution of two different rubber compounds between theouter and inner sides of the tread. The outer side has a novel carbon black-reinforced elastomer derived directlyfrom the Le Mans 24 Hour Race technology which results in extreme enduranceeven under the tightest cornering forces. The inner side has the latest generation of elastomers with exceptional wetgrip functionality to mould themselves to the slightest irregularities in theroad surface and break the film of water.

Variable Contact Patch 2.0
With the MichelinPilot Super Sport tyre, when you’re cornering at high speed or acceleratingflat out in a straight line you still receive optimum grip. The shape of the contact patch, when cornering, changes but the amount ofrubber in contact with the road surface does not change. Using state-of-the-art tools, from the latestdigital simulation software used in the aeronautics and automobile industries,have enabled the forces and temperatures  generated by the tyre to be more evenlydistributed over the contact patch
