Michelin Pilot Sport 4S VS Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 - Compared on Track [*]

This is a very simple video, it's the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S * against the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 Connect *. Both are star marked BMW spec tyres, and both are OE tires for the new G80 M3 and G82 M4.

The tyres will be tested in the dry and wet to see which has the better handling, and what has the faster lap times.

When you watch a tyre test on tyres that aren't available for your vehicle - you know its cos you love this channel!

This channel needs more subs, it's criminal how underrated it is.

[DanLMH]

God this gen of car does not get prettier, every time I see one it looks worse & worse, headlights misproportioned, monster grille, and fake engine noise lol

As I said last week, you're churning these vids out now and I am here to watch every single one :D

[koliberk]

Driving my 2t car on Michelin 4S for about 1.5year and after watching this video, I would no longer consider to swap to CUP2. Thanks 👏👍😉

[Thireen]

I went for the Cup 2 Connects from your previous reviews & I love them, dry & warm they are brilliant.

[iPod]

Such a great video, deserves more views ! Can't believe how close they are in the dry although they understandably won't keep this performance as long as the cup2 on a track session.

I'm rather late to the tyre reviews party but I'm extremely glad I stumbled across it anyway. Brilliant channel, thank you for all your hard work.

[emanueldanciu]

Please do a rant video on people that use winter tyres in the summer !

I'm a massive fan of your work sir !
I own a 215 hp RCZ and i'm about to buy some Michelin PS4 thanks to your channel.

Such a pleasure to whatch this channel !
I check your channel out every 2 or 3 days to see if i haven't miss a new realease.

[aarons]

Gotta appreciate the effort this man puts into these. Tires are the most important part of your car, thank you!!

[NoisyBoy]

Ripper comparison as always. Definitely deserving of more subs than this channel has so far.
Should sort out a collab video with CarWow, do something like a drag race comparison showing the importance of having the right tyre.
Also, Michelin, release these 4S's in more sizes. I need 235/35R19's for the vRS and I need them pronto!

[thamilawrence]

When I helped a friend looking for the Cup 2s we didnt get the size but the guys at Porsche recommended the 4s and they were indeed correct. They are very close.

[NoHope_]

question is an oe tire model specific or would you be able to put the star marked 4s on lets say an m2c and have similar results?

[robertgregory]

Getting a rear set of 4S in the Spring on my 992 so this was helpful, thank you!

[ayrtonsenna]

Thanks for making my best break of the day 🙂.
Understeer and only 7/10th of a second gap on a one minute lap...just add the price difference and the choice is definitely a no brainer thanks to your review!
It would be good such video pushes BMW to release PS4S* for 19" wheels...

[h.l.]

Thank you another very interesting test.
The 4S is a great, impressive performance for a road tyre.

[alessandrozaffaroni]

Nice!
Well...a quality for a TD tyre is also how it handle 20min without overheating, and how it handles termal cycles, not only one single lap comparison. Hard to show in a video!

[michaelscurr]

I’ve had both tyres as you said easy on the throttle you can live with the ps4 in the wet no worries the cup 2’s wow insaneI love them on my series 1m.

[rabrab]

I trust Jonathan to be clockwork accurate in his reviews. 4s is my tire of choice for both my cars.

[milk-it]

I noticed the under-steer in warm to hot conditions with the Pilot Sport Cup 2, too - and that was in my Golf R all-wheel-drive. I still love the Cup Sport 2 tyres.

[boreas]

Well done as always Jonathan, keep it up.
