Michelin Pilot Sport 4 performance tyres launched in India

Thank you to BHPian Nikhilb2008 for sharing this information with other enthusiasts!

Michelin has launched the Pilot Sport 4 performance tyre range in India. Currently, only a small number of sizes are available under the PS4 range in the country, though more sizes are expected to be added to the line-up in the near future. Michelin will be importing the PS4 range of tyres into India from its manufacturing hub in Thailand.

Currently, there are four sizes available under the Pilot Sport 4 range. These include 225/40 ZR18, 245/40 ZR18, 225/45 ZR17 and 225/50 ZR17. Additionally, the company is planning to add four new profiles in the next month, i.e., July 2017. The upcoming tyre sizes under the Pilot Sport 4 range include 205/50 ZR16, 205/45 ZR17, 215/50 ZR17 and 235/40 ZR18.

Michelin India is marketing this new range of tyres as the Pilot Sport 4 ST, with the 'ST' suffix likely been added to make it sound similar to the Primacy 3 ST range of tyres. However, the tyres themselves come with just the 'Pilot Sport 4' branding.

Prices for the available tyres in Karnataka (including 14.5% VAT) are as follows:

• 225/45 ZR17 - Rs. 12,205
• 225/50 ZR17 - Rs. 12,210
• 225/40 ZR18 - Rs. 21,025
• 245/40 ZR18 - Rs. 24,050
