GREAT PERFORMANCE IN THE WET +

Patented sipes and integrated water reservoirs allow Michelin X-Sipe Technology X SIPE TECHNOLOGY +
(XST) to deliver exceptional grip on wet roads. The XST+ includes transverse sipes
to improve wet braking and chamfered sipe edges to help prevent uneven wear
in extreme conditions.

CHAMFERED EDGES Chamfers

High pressure sipe edges cut through the film of water allowing the tread rubber
to grip, chamfering these edges slows wear and promotes more even wear,
maintaining performance for longer.

VARIABLE VOID RATIO PATENTED FRONT TREAD PATTERN
PATENTED REAR TREAD PATTERN
The void ratio is the percentage of grooving versus rubber in contact with the
road, it varies across the tire delivering the best wet and dry grip properties
according to the lean angle. Maximum water clearance at lower angles and
maximum rubber contact on the shoulders for aggresive dry riding lean angles.

UTILITY OF THE BEVELED GROOVE EDGES

A proportion of the pattern’s groove edges are beveled, forming ‘scoops’
which facilitate the clearance of the mud and grit that can be encountered
on non-sealed roads.

As the tire wears, the amount of rubber in contact with the ground increases,
providing added grip, thanks to the angled surface of these ‘scoops’.

UTILITY OF THE SERRATIONS ON THE GROOVE SIDES

In the course of the tire’s working life, the way these 3D serrations wear
enables the amount of rubber in contact with the ground to remain
beneficial to grip in dry weather, while the additional edges contribute
to grip on wet roads.
