OVERVIEW

The Michelin Pilot Super Sport (MO1) tire is a summer max performance tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.

The model was made to be the original equipment tire on select Mercedes-Benz AMG vehicles. The tire has the MO markings, which identifies the tire as a Mercedes-Benz Original tire. The model passed through numerous rigorous tests to be approved by Mercedes-Benz to be used on their vehicle as original equipment. These tires ensure a first-rate controllability, traction, high speed performance and high comfort levels to guarantee the vehicles best performing capability.

This summer tire offers excellent dry and wet weather traction and grips the road well in these conditions. However, it will not perform well in winter weather. The circumferential and smaller lateral grooves in the tread pattern eliminate water from beneath the tire and prevent hydroplaning.

Michelin used its data from motorsport racing, particularly from Le Mans, during the manufacture of this tire, which enhanced its performing ability. Its Bi-Compound tread compound, which employs two compound types across the tire’s tread for divided dry and wet performance, boosts the tire’s performing ability and dry and wet weather traction. The tire’s lowered overall weight also improves its performance and makes its handling easier for the driver, while the Bi-Compound also enables a shortened braking distance.

The Pilot Super Sport (MO1)’s structure is reinforced with the Twaron Belt package, which reduces the possibility of punctures and provides high speed durability. This special structure, along also slows down the tread’s wear rate, while the Variable Contact Patch 2.0 Technology ensures even wear throughout the tire, extending its life in the process.
