Michelin Pilot Sport ZP ( 275/35 ZR18 (87Y) LL, with rim protectionleiste (FSL), run-flat )

The Pilot Sport ZP's directional tread design features a continuous circumferential center rib flanked by a 'W'-shaped tread pattern. The continuous center rib sharpens steering response and provides communicative road feel while the swept back lateral grooves efficiently evacuate water from under the contact patch to resist hydroplaning and enhance wet traction, while reducing tire noise on dry roads. On the inside, two high-tensile, lightweight steel cord belts, and spirally wrapped nylon cord utilizing Michelin's BAZ (Banded At Zero) Technology improves steering response
