Michelin OE on Ferrari 458 Speciale

Michelin is, and will be, the exclusive worldwide supplier of tyres for the new Ferrari 458 Speciale.

In developing the alliance between the new Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 and the new Ferrari sports car, both companies pooled their cutting-edge engineering resources, wheel assembly expertise, passion for performance, measuring technology and the skills and analytical capabilities of their R&D staff and test drivers.

The simultaneous co-development of the tyre and the car, through tests on both the simulator and the track, led to superior performance in three specific areas that were identified prior to the start of the project: faster lap times on a dry track, consistent performance lap after lap and optimal grip on wet roads.

In short, the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyre is an integral part of the new Ferrari 458 Speciale and a key component of its exceptional performance.
