Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Summer weather traction
- High speed controllability
- High driving comfort levels
OVERVIEW
The Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2 is a high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.
The tire upgrades the summer traction, by using a stronger compound and an asymmetric ribbed tread design. The compound elements avoid heat build-up, while the tread elements effectively maintain surface contact while the tires are in motion. This results in a stronger dry and wet weather performance. The tread design, on the other hand, also manages to lower the possibility of hydroplaning. Circumferential grooves channel water away from the footprint, promoting a safer summer weather driving experience.
The tread design's ribbed pattern upgrades controllability as well. The three center ribs allow the tire to closely follow the road at all times, which boosts steering responsiveness and driving stability. The tread's shoulders firmly grip the road, upgrading cornering. This is achieved as the tread utilizes the additional biting edges to increase maneuvering power. The better road-to-rubber ratio and the stronger compound work together to shorten the braking distance. They generate friction between the tire and the road, enhancing the overall braking power. The tire also increases high speed durability. The heat-resistant compound avoids heat build-up during the high speed performance, which optimizes the high speed durability.
The Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2 promotes excellent comfort levels. The tread design's acoustically tuned tread elements help to lower road noise heard during the drive. It channels airwaves through the footprint, without allowing their contact with the tread elements. As a result, the tire does not generate road and tread pattern noise, which can ruin the passengers' driving enjoyment. This promotes a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
