After five years on the market, the Michelin Pilot Super Sport has been replaced.
Meet the new Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S
Sadly Michelin have chosen to drop the much loved "Super Sport" branding in favour of the making the product family more uniform. The "4 S" name could mislead you into thinking this tyre has all-season (or "four season") capabilities, but rest assured the new 4S is just as focused as the Michelin Pilot Super Sport was.
The product launch will take place in January 2017 as the tyre becomes available on the replacement market, and you can be sure we'll be the first to drive on the new Pilot Sport 4S as we're extremely excited about the replacement for one of our favourite tyres.
For now, here's the press release, with some rather interesting comparisons made by the independent test organisation TUV.
