Michelin Pilot HX MXM4 (OE) 265/45R18 101V

The tread design also contributes to the great traction, as the 2D Active Sipes Technology provides additional biting edges in rain and snow, increasing its versatility. By eliminating water from beneath the tire's footprint, the tread grooves resist hazardous hydroplaning.

It lowers the vibrations felt in the cabin of the vehicle as it maintains constant contact with the road. The noise-cancelling, computer optimized tread pattern helps lower the road noise.

It divides the force of acceleration, braking and cornering equally across the tire's road contact area, and forces the tread to wear out evenly as identical driving pressure hits every part. The tire's even wear is also due to its reduced rolling resistance. The Green X Technology helps achieve that. The lowered resistance lessens the pressure on the tire, while also decreasing the vehicle's fuel usage. This makes the tire more economic.

This spiral wrap polyamide cord stabilizes the tire's tread area and increases the steering responsiveness. The shortened steering response time combined with the additional biting edges of the model at cornering make the tire safer to use and the increase the quality of the drive.
