The ideal balance Independent tests confirm the Pilot Road 2 offers better wet grip and longer tread life than any of its competitors.

MotoGP-derived 2CT technology makes it possible, using two distinct rubber compounds to achieve what was once thought impossible.
Wet grip and durability testing was performed in 2006 by CERM (Centre Essais Routiers Mcaniques) on Michelin Pilot Road 2 and five leading competitors' equivalent tyres, using sizes 120/70 ZR 17 and 180/55 ZR.
