The Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP (Zero Pressure) is the Ultra High Performance All-Season run-flat tire member of Michelin's Pilot family of low profile, high-speed tires. Developed in the Original Equipment (O.E.) sizes for Chevrolet Corvette C-5 and C-6 coupe and convertible sports cars, the Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP is designed to temporarily support the weight of the car even after a loss of air pressure, as well as combine enhanced all-weather performance, wet grip and treadwear along with year-round traction, including in light snow.
The Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP features Michelin’s TriFusion Compound that molds three different tread compounds side-by-side using the precise capabilities of Michelin’s “C3M” tire manufacturing process. The tread compound in both shoulders improves dry handling, the compound used between the shoulders and center rib enhances wet, snow and cold weather traction while the compound used in the center rib boosts wet traction. These three compounds are molded into a directional tread design (shared with earlier Pilot Sport A/S ZP tires) that features a continuous circumferential center rib (to provide communicative road feel and reduce noise on dry roads), high angle directional tread blocks (to sharpen steering response and dry road handling) along with circumferential and high angle lateral grooves (to resist hydroplaning and enhance wet traction). The tire’s internal structure includes two high-tensile, lightweight steel cord belts under the tread area reinforced with Michelin’s “Filament At Zero” (FAZ) technology that spirally wraps an individual strand of polyamide across the entire tread (similar to the way fishing line is wound onto a fishing reel) to increase treadwear and ride comfort while providing high-speed durability and predictable handling. Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP tires feature reinforced sidewalls that are designed to temporarily support the weight of the car even after a loss of air pressure.
NOTE: Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP tires can be mixed with earlier Pilot Sport A/S ZP tires in axle pairs as long as the Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP tires are installed on the rear axle.
El neumático Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP (cero presión) de Michelin, es un neumático ruedaflat (no necesita aire para rodar por determinada distancia y a cierta velocidad) que pertenece a la categoría: Ultra Alto Rendimiento Para Toda Estación y es miembro de la familia de neumáticos de bajo perfil y velocidad elevada Pilot. Desarrollado como neumático original (O.E. por sus siglas en inlgés) para el Corvette C-5 y C-6 de Chevrolet y autos deportivos convertibles, el Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP ha sido diseñado para soportar el peso del auto temporalmente, inclusive luego de pérdida de aire. Además, combina un mejor rendimiento en todo tipo de clima y agarre sobre mojado, con tracción durante las cuatro estaciones del año, inclusive sobre superficies cubiertas con poca nieve.
El Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP, posee el compuesto de caucho TriFusion de Michelin, el cual, posee tres diferentes compuestos ubicados uno al lado del otro. El compuesto de caucho utilizado en ambos hombros mejora la maniobrabilidad sobre superficies secas, el compuesto entre los hombros y el segmento central, mejora la tracción sobre superficies mojadas, frías o cubiertas con nieve, y el compuesto del segmento central aumenta la tracción sobre mojado. Estos compuestos son moldeados en una banda de rodamiento con diseño direccional (compartido con el Pilot Sport A/S ZP), la cual, contiene un segmento central circunferencial continuo (proporcionan mejor comunicación con la carretera seca y reduce el ruido), bloques direccionales con ángulos abiertos (obtienen una respuesta más precisa y mejor maniobrabilidad sobre superficies secas), además de ranuras circunferenciales y laterales con ángulos abiertos (resisten el deslizamiento en agua - hydroplaning – y mejoran la tracción sobre mojado).
La estructura interna incluye dos correas con cordones de acero liviano resistentes a tensiones fuertes, ubicadas debajo de la banda de rodamiento, que es reforzada con la tecnología FAZ (Filament At Zero) de Michelin. FAZ envuelve cuerdas individuales de poliamida en espiral a través de la huella (parecido a las líneas de cuerda de pescar enrolladas en el carrete) para mejorar el desgaste, el confort del andar y proporcionar durabilidad a velocidades elevadas y maniobrabilidad predecible. El Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP posee paredes o flancos reforzados que soportan temporalmente el peso del auto, en caso de perdida de aire.
NOTA: Los Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP pueden utilizarse con los Pilot Sport A/S ZP, siempre y cuando, los Plus ZP, se ubiquen en el eje trasero (el mismo tipo de neumático, en el mismo eje).

*Tire Rack's Tire Warranty Rating is an overall rating given to tire warranties after subjectively evaluating their value for the consumer. Warranties are rated on a scale of 0-5 with 5 being the highest. This rating combines all of the aspects of each tire's warranty where applicable, including: mileage/treadlife, materials and workmanship, balance and uniformity, replacement tire cost, warranty duration and any special manufacturer's warranties that apply. See official manufacturer's warranty brochure for specific details.
NOTE: New vehicle Original Equipment tire warranties often differ from those covering replacement tires. Consult your vehicle documents to confirm Original Equipment tire warranty coverage.
