Michelin is a tire manufacturer based in Clermont-Ferrand in the Auvergne region of France. It is one of the three largest tire manufacturers in the world along with Bridgestone and Goodyear.

The Pilot Sport Cup 2 is an ultra high-performance tire designed for use in the warmer months, it is is built for use on sport and supercars and offers drivers excellent braking and handling along with a long lifespan. However, they are not recommended for driving in wet conditions where standing water is present and there is the risk of hydroplaning; drivers should drive cautiously at reduced speeds if they encounter these conditions. The Pilot Sport Cup 2's tread molds Michelin's Bi-Compound technology into an asymmetric design. Even in wet conditions, the Pilot Sport Cup 2 goes faster by wet track 1.2 seconds per lap, 20 % deeper tread depth making it possible than previous models for quick draining capabilities. Reinforced external shoulder, for extra tread wear resistance. The Pilot Sport Cup 2's tread molds Michelin's Bi-Compound technology into an asymmetric design. Bi-Compound technology features different rubber compounds on the tread's outboard and inboard regions. Massive outboard shoulders feature a tread rubber whose hardness has been specially designed to deliver maximum adherence and outstanding dry grip on curves, especially on tight corners. Notched center ribs and an inboard shoulder use tread rubber featuring a more rigid elastomer to ensure precision steering. Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires feature MICHELIN® Variable Contact Patch 3.0, an innovation evolved from the Variable Contact Patch 2.0 technology integrated into Pilot Super Sport and Pilot Sport A/S 3 tires. Variable Contact Patch 3.0 maximizes the contact patch size and optimizes its footprint pressure so that more rubber remains in contact with the track when cornering, thereby ensuring superior grip in curves and tight corners.
