The Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 is a high-performance summer track tyre engineered for ultra-high performance sports vehicles and track day driving. It features Multi-Compound Technology utilizing two different rubber compounds, with a High Molecular Chain elastomer in the outer tread for excellent cornering grip and a rigid elastomer in the inner tread for optimized steering control. The tyre delivers exceptional dry track performance with reported lap time improvements of up to 1.8 seconds per lap compared to predecessors. Wet performance is compromised as the tyre is optimized specifically for dry conditions and should not be used on wet roads due to hydroplaning risk. The tyre generates minimal noise due to its track-focused design and semi-slick characteristics. Load and speed ratings vary by size and vehicle application, with common fitments on Porsche, Ferrari, Mercedes-AMG, BMW, and Corvette models as original equipment.
