Michelin Pilot Road Radial Rear Tire - 180/55ZR17 (58W)

ZOOM

Pilot® Road tires are suitable for a vast array of bikes - from naked roadsters to knife-edge sportbikes, to 600-pound sport tourers.

Versatile rubber mix with 100 percent silica reinforcing fillers helps provide outstanding grip, wet or dry. Silica replaces the conventional carbon black normally used to bind the rubber molecules. These silica bonds reduce internal friction and excessive heat, helping to combat premature tire wear.

Innovative radial structure with two plies at 75 degrees (all front sizes and some rear sizes), bound by a longitudinal zero-degree crown ply. Promotes comfortable, consistent handling under varying loads.

• Progressive, stable handling on highways or backroads. • Excellent durability with balanced wear on both wheels. • Optimized balance of tread life and performance. • Tread designed to channel water away from contact patch. • Innovative front and rear tread designs. • Tubeless or tube-type.
