Cup2s working great for my 1000+hp ZR1

So far these cup2 tires have been amazing, way better then the cup1s! The original tires that came on my 2013 ZR1 were cup1 tires. I was not a fan of them and actually took them off to put on Michelin pilot sports. I honestly liked the pilot sports over the cup1s but after modifying the car the pilot sorts were worthless. I was literally spinning the tires from a 70mph 3rd gear roll and even into 4th. It became very scary trying to harness 900+ rwhp/rwtq. With the cup 2s I’m able to dead hook my ZR1 from a 2nd gear roll at 30mph on the street. Pretty amazed what threse tires can do when warmed up. I highly recommend them.

Tires gone at 2000+ miles.

I have a brand new 2025 Z06 with the Z07 performance package, so comes with the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup summer tires. At 2,400 miles with no track driving and regular aggressive driving (so day-to-day driving, but hitting corners hard, good speed, but no burn outs, no excessive braking), my rear right tire blew out with essentially no warning, other than a slight vibration that started a few miles before the below out. When I examined the tire, both rear tires were worn completely down to the threads and had split. I have NEVER had a car where the tires were done with such low mileage and no track driving. I mean, I have a Tesla Model S Plaid, a Porche 911 Turbo S, and in the past I have owned Vipers, GTRs, and so on, and have never seen this happen to a tire. I think it is a manufacturing defect. Michelin refused to cover it under a warranty. The last set of Michelin tires I will ever own. Shame.

Expensive - but worth it?

I've been running these for just a couple of weeks now on my CTS-V wagon. It's a big, heavy car and makes about 800hp at the tires. Some guys run drag radials to put the power down, but I needed a better all-around tire. These are a good step up from the Super Sports. Quiet, grippy, the ride quality is amazing. Wear / tread life TBD. But these hold at WOT in 2nd gear - something no other tire has been able to do. Super Sports wold spin in 4th gear sometimes. The handling feel is great too. I've had several rain days and wet grip is way better than expected - haven't tried deeper water but wet roads handle just fine.

Excellent Track Tire!

As mentioned by others, this is a street legal track tire. Don’t expect high mileage given the compound. When at the proper temp they stick like gum! Love it. Expensive, but worth the extra grip in the corners. 4 track weekends and 3,300 miles, they are slicks now. Just not sure how far to go as the wear bars don’t mean much on this type of tire but some holes/dimples on the outer tread blocks would be great to better gauge compound remaining.

On my M4 these tires last 5 months.

I used to love Michelin tires but my opinion has changed, I buy tires now that cost 3 times less and perform just as good. For track days these tires will last you one day. On streets it will last me 6 months I don’t want to pay 3k per year just to have Michelin’s the company is going downhill with marketing. Yes they look good but my problem is safety and durability. You see when I had about 8k miles on my M4 my rear tires almost got me killed by hydroplaning on a highway at 80mph good thing I knew how to drift so I was able to stabilize the car. First thing I did when I got home is take these tires off. The rubber is too soft and in the state of Florida they wear out way to fast. Michelin step your game up and not prices.

Great tire. Wear depends on type of use.

I have had these on two vehicles. A GT350 and a Lotus Evora GT. The Mustang smoked the fronts in 4000kms with no track days. The rears were probably 30% at that point. The Lotus has 9000kms and 4 track days at to date. The rears will be good for another track session and fronts will probably outlast another set of rears. Overall a great tire. Would by again.

PSS vs Pilot Sport Cup 2

PSS is a very good tire... for normal roads. On the track, only the Sport Cup 2 is the right tire. I am driving a Corvette ZR1 but my friends are on Porsche and Ferrari. No one is driving with PSS on the track. They all have Sport Cup 2 tires or even slicks. And we are good but only gentleman drivers !... Even a very good sport tire (like the PSS) is definitely not made for the track.

Michelin pilot sport cup 2

I have a Corvette C-7 Z-06. I bought the Michelin pilot sport cup tires for track day.They did hold the track very well. My problem is, I wore them out in one day. That's a little to expensive for me.

Good Tire

My GT350R (track only car) has worn these for three years. They’re the best tires I’ve ever run, in street / track designation. Solid break in and heat cycle management will completely avoid some anecdotal tire wear reports.

Good Tire

I owned a set of Cup 2's on a Turbo S and felt good about the overall wear and handling for spirited street driving. They will be on my next vehicle too.
