Michelin 70808 Pilot Sport A/S 3 Plus 245/35R20 95Y XL All-Season Tire

The Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 Plus (MPN: 70808) is an ultra-high performance all-season tire engineered to deliver summer-level wet and dry grip while maintaining confident traction in cold weather and light snow. Sized at 245/35R20 with a 95Y XL service description, this tire is purpose-built for high-performance sports cars, performance sedans, and sports crossovers that demand year-round capability without sacrificing driving dynamics.

Key Features:

• Variable Contact Patch 3.0: Originally developed for endurance racing, this technology distributes forces and temperatures evenly across the entire contact patch, reducing heat distortion and delivering exceptional dry cornering grip and responsiveness at every speed.
• Helio+ Compound with Extreme Silica Technology: An advanced tread compound combining extreme amounts of silica with sunflower oil to maximize wet traction and maintain pliability in cold temperatures — keeping the tire grippy when it matters most.
• Hydroplaning Resistance: Four wide circumferential grooves, variable-thickness 3D sipes, and a high-silica tread compound work together to channel water away rapidly and resist hydroplaning in deep water.
• Winter-Ready Tread: The Helio+ compound combined with hidden biting edges in the tread grooves grabs loose snow for improved acceleration and braking, delivering 28% better snow traction versus the previous generation.
• Asymmetric Performance Tread Pattern: Inspired by the Michelin Pilot Super Sport summer tire, the aggressive asymmetric design features rugged outboard shoulder blocks for increased lateral grip and dry cornering performance.
• High-Tensile Steel Belt Construction: Two lightweight, high-tensile steel cord belts reinforced with spirally wrapped polyamide cord provide predictable high-speed handling, improved tread life, and enhanced ride comfort.
• UTQG Rating: 500 AA A — reflecting excellent treadwear, superior traction, and top-rated temperature resistance.
• 45,000-Mile Treadwear Limited Warranty (Y speed rating)

The Pilot Sport A/S 3 Plus bridges the gap between a dedicated summer performance tire and an all-season tire, making it an ideal choice for performance enthusiasts who live in climates with occasional winter weather but refuse to compromise on dry and wet handling precision.
