      Michelin Pilot Sport 4 Tire

      The Michelin Pilot Sport 4 is an ultra-high-performance summer tire designed for drivers who want responsive handling, strong road feedback, and confident grip from a premium performance tire. Built for sports cars, performance sedans, hot hatches, and luxury vehicles, the Pilot Sport 4 delivers the sharp steering feel and stability expected from Michelin’s acclaimed Pilot Sport family.

      Its advanced tread compound helps maximize dry-road traction while maintaining dependable wet-weather control. A performance-oriented tread pattern supports precise cornering, stable braking, and excellent control during spirited driving. Wide circumferential grooves help evacuate water from the contact patch, improving confidence during sudden rain and reducing hydroplaning risk. The tire is also engineered to provide a comfortable ride and manageable road noise, making it suitable for everyday street use as well as enthusiastic weekend driving.

      For customers shopping for Michelin summer tires, performance tires, sports car tires, or premium tire upgrades, the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 is a strong choice. It offers an impressive blend of grip, steering precision, wet-road confidence, and Michelin durability for drivers who want a connected, performance-focused driving experience without sacrificing everyday refinement.

        Replacing stock tires on OEM Tesla wheels

        Stock Tesla Tire Replacement and Maintenance
        OEM Tesla tires are designed and manufactured to optimize performance, safety, reliability and durability. Naturally, due to normal usage and aging, tires degrade over time from the effects of ultraviolet light, extreme temperatures, loading and environmental exposure. T Sportline recommends replacing OEM Tesla tires exclusively with exact replacements. T Sportline Tesla factory replacement tire listings include, but are not limited to replacement OEM-spec Tesla factory tires.

        Recommended Tesla Tire Rotation
        T Sportline recommends rotating your tires every 6,250 miles or sooner if tread depth varies between any of the 4 tires by 2/32 in or greater. Aggressive driving or harsh environments can lead to premature tire wear and may require more frequent tire inspection. Unbalanced and misaligned wheels affect ride quality, vehicle handling, tire life and driveline component longevity. Tesla lug nuts are 21mm socket heads and must be torqued to 129 ft-lbs / 175 Nm

        Maintaining Proper Tire Pressures on Teslas
        T Sportline recommends keeping tires inflated to the pressures shown on the Tesla Tire and Loading Information label, even if it differs from the pressure printed on the tire itself. The Tire and Loading Information label is located midway up on the center door pillar and is visible when the driver’s door is open. T Sportline's recommended Tesla Tire inflator is HERE.


        Checking and Adjusting Tesla Tire Pressure

        When your Tesla has been stationary and out of direct sunlight for over three hours:

        • Remove the tire air valve stem cap (unscrew cap by hand).
        • Firmly press a tire pressure gauge onto the valve stem tip to measure pressure (a small amount of air will escape during measurement, which is normal).
        • Compare reading to Tesla Tire Pressure specification (found on the Tire and Loading Information label located midway up on the center door pillar, visible only when the driver’s door is open), add or remove air to match the recommended pressure. Reduce pressure by by pressing the metal pin in the center of the valve. Increase pressure using an appropriate tire inflator pump or compressed air source.
        • Re-check pressure using the tire pressure gauge.
        • Re-install the valve stem cap (hand tighten)
        • Important note: Under-inflation is the most common cause of tire failures and can cause a tire to overheat, resulting in severe tire cracking, tread separation, or blowout, which causes unexpected loss of car control and increased risk of injury. Under-inflation also reduces the car's range and tire tread life.
        • Tesla TPMS sensors require driving for a short period of time before updated pressure readings are recorded accurately. Expect TPMS readings to reflect accurate tire pressure readings after driving 5 miles.

        Factors impacting tire pressure readings:

        • Ambient temperature - Air pressure increases in heat and decreases in cold.
        • Tire temperature – Tires warm up during use.
        • Sunlight – directly sunlight will increase tire temperature and thereby tire pressure.
