Michelin Pilot Sport 4S Tyres

Michelin is a world-renowned brand synonymous with high-performance automotive equipment and innovation. Founded in 1889 in Clermont-Ferrand, France, the company transitioned from a rubber factory to a global leader in tyre technology, credited with inventing the radial tyre which revolutionized the transport industry.

Today, Michelin operates a vast global manufacturing network with over 120 production sites across Europe, North America, and Asia. While many of their premium lines are still produced in France, their international manufacturing footprint ensures they supply global automotive markets efficiently. The brand remains under the stewardship of the Michelin Group (Compagnie Générale des Établissements Michelin), which continues to be a publicly traded entity headquartered in its original founding city.

Beyond just rubber, Michelin's ownership of the Michelin Guide and their commitment to sustainable mobility via research into airless tyres and hydrogen fuel cells keeps them at the forefront of the industry. The company maintains total independence as a French multinational, often ranking as one of the largest tyre manufacturers in the world by market share.
