Michelin Pilot Road 4 Front TireAimed directly at the sport touring rider, the Michelin Pilot Road 4 Front Tire looks to build upon the legacy of the Pilot Road 3 and create something that can be ridden hard and through every kind of weather condition. A dual compound tire, Michelin has worked hard to improve grip in the wet and drastically cut down on stopping distance. And if that isn’t enough, Michelin claims a 20% increase in mileage compared to the Pilot Road 3. Superior wet-weather performance: Stops 17% shorter than the leading sport-touring tire competitors on wet pavement and 24% shorter on slippery wet surfaces** Last longer: Up to 20% longer tread life than Michelin Pilot Road 3 tires**** Dependable grip, even in challenging conditions: 2 Compound Technology with all-new silica-charged rubber compounds for excellent grip from 23 degrees F to 113 degrees F. New XST+ siping and enhanced tread patterns for optimum grip at all lean angles**Note: Based on third-party commissioned tests conducted in 2013 by Dekra Test Center in Ladoux, France for braking on wet and wet slippery surfaces; tires included the Michelin Pilot Road 4, Dunlop Sportmax Roadsmart II, Metzeler Roadtec Z8 Interact, Pirelli Angel GT and Bridgestone Battlax Sport Touring T30 in dimensions 120/70ZR/17 and 180/55ZR/17.
