Product Benefits

• MICHELIN Pilot Sport Cup, the quickest tyre on a dry circuit ⁽¹⁾ and fully road legal

• MICHELIN Pilot Sport Cup + is the reference track tyre for Porsche and BMW M, fitted as original equipment to the Porsche 911, GT2, GT3 and the BMW M3

• Homologated by Porsche on the 911 (997) GT3 / GT3 RS versions, and by BMW on the M3. Built for circuit use, yet easy to drive on the open road.

  Easy to drive in wet conditions: wet road holding close to Michelin's sports tyre range (Pilot Sport 2) which was rated amongst the best in German press tests in March 2006 (ADAC, Sport Auto).

Conditions of Use

Conditions of Use

• Road use:
  - Use the car manufacturer’s recommended tyre pressures.
  
  Track use:
  Cold starting pressures, 26 psi (1.8 bar) front and rear.
  Then bring the tyres gradually up to temperature.
  To maximise grip aim for:
  - Hot pressures of 2.3 bar front and rear (contact Michelin for more information).
  - Tread compound temperature between 70° and 110°C for optimum performance.
  For more information, contact Michelin.
  
  Important: after track use, before leaving the circuit and once the tyres have cooled down, re-inflate your tyres to establish the car manufacturer’s recommended tyre pressures. Due to the reduced original tread depths and technical characteristics of these tyres, we advise drivers to take care and reduce speeds as necessary in wet conditions, especially in deep standing water or heavy rain. This applies to track and road use.
