What are the differences between Michelin PS4 and Pirelli P Zero?
1 Answers
Both PSx and P Zero are top-tier performance street tires from first-tier brands (excluding semi-slick compounds), with differences reflected in: P Zero has always been Pirelli's flagship sports tire, with numerous derivative series, while Michelin's Pilot-Sport series also represents Michelin's top sports tires, but with a wide variety of tread patterns and rapid updates and upgrades. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Width: Under the premise of similar widths, there is no essential difference in wet road grip between these two tires. It's worth mentioning that the actual tread width of the PS4 is slightly larger than that of the PZ4, which can be seen when placed side by side. 2. Handling: In terms of driving feel, on highways with standing water, the PZ4 tends to pull the steering slightly when entering the water, while the PS4 is much more subtle. However, when cornering at high speeds in the rain at the same speed, the PZ4 offers slightly better support and stability than the PS4. In rainy conditions, the noise and steering stability of both tires are quite similar, but the PS4 produces a special low-frequency airflow noise at low speeds.
