Ferrari F80 to wear Michelin

Michelin has developed an exclusive K1 Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tyre for the new Ferrari F80 supercar.

The widest tyre Michelin has ever produced for the Italian manufacturer, the front tyres are classic in size, measuring 285/30 R 20, while the rear tyres are 345/30 R 21 – a size reserved for supercars.

Developed in just 15 months, using unique modelling systems for tyres to simulate the most extreme situations, Michelin’s production process for the F80 tyres, said to be the only one of its kind in the world, can produce a tyre with an accuracy of one tenth of a millimetre.
