good
Ranked #7 of 10
Securing the 7th position out of 10 in a competitive field, the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 garnered a positive final rating of 'Good'. Testers found it exceptionally responsive, direct, precise, and dynamic on dry surfaces, effectively meeting the demands of sporty driving. A highlight was its absolute best performance in dry steering response among its peers. However, it exhibited limitations in wet conditions with a narrower margin for safety, a noticeable sensitivity to puddles, and a lack of damping which detracted from its otherwise stellar performance. Despite these drawbacks, the tire was praised for its impressive precision and directness on dry roads but was considered to have some shortcomings in wet conditions, indicating that it may be showing its age in this area. The availability of its successor, the Pilot Sport 5, within the same year was also mentioned, hinting at continued innovation from Michelin.
