The Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 is a max-performance summer tire for drivers who demand precise sport handling, and it has served as original equipment on sports cars such as the BMW M3, Porsche 911 and Chevrolet Corvette ZR1.
Its tread puts more rubber on the road for precise cornering and steady straight-line performance, pairing a semi-slick outer tread with a wet-styled inner tread for strong grip on both wet and dry pavement.
The 235/50ZR17 size is rated 96Y for load and speed. It offers 8.5/32-inch tread depth, a 51 psi maximum inflation pressure, a UTQG rating of 220AAA and an overall diameter of about 26.3 inches. This size carries a 20,000-mile treadwear warranty.
