Michelin XVS
Michelin XVS
Put on your best white suit and “hustle” back to the 70s with the Michelin XVS.
Michelin XVS Features
Whether your vintage 70s performance car is a homegrown classic like a Pontiac or Buick, or a showpiece from across the pond like an Aston Martin or a Bentley, the Michelin XVS will roll you right back to the disco era.
Building on the success of their original asymmetrical tire, Michelin continued to innovate with the XVS, which features a lower void outer shoulder. This allows the tread to maintain more surface contact and improve grip during cornering.
Of course, the current version of the XVS is updated with the latest compound to meet modern standards for safety and longevity, white maintaining the original look and performance profile so your classic car can stay true to its roots, right down to the tires.
Features of the Michelin XVS include:
-
Modern compound technology meets vintage design for the ultimate classic car tire.
-
Steel belted construction with a nylon reinforcement ply for high-speed stability and performance.
-
Four circumferential channels sweep water away from the contact patch to reduce the risk of hydroplaning.
-
Zig-zag grooves and sipes add extra biting edges for added grip on wet roads.
