Now entering its fourth generation this summer, the popular Michelin Pilot Sport All-Season (PSAS) is a well-proven model under the brand’s extensive portfolio. So what’s new and just how does this latest entry hold up against its predecessors? We were given a set to try out and here’s what we found.
High-performance and all-season are usually mutually exclusive, but Michelin engineers have found a way to make the two co-exist. Looking at the tread pattern, it’s evident the outer shoulders are chunkier, the extra rubber helping with lateral grip on dry roads. Mounting and evaluating these on a Lexus IS sports sedan, in primarily favourable weather, the car devoured high-speed corners with little audible protest.
