Welcome to the world<br />
of <strong>Michelin</strong> <strong>Competition</strong>!<br />
At <strong>Michelin</strong>, motorsport is a way of life that continuously allows us<br />
prove that the combination of innovation, reliability and performance<br />
works towards a single goal: enabling our partners and customers to<br />
benefit from the latest technological breakthroughs<br />
made in the worlds of circuit racing, rallying, on<br />
asphalt, snow, ice and gravel. Our <strong>tyres</strong> have<br />
long enjoyed an enviable record of individual<br />
event wins and titles. <strong>Michelin</strong> is forever<br />
taking up new challenges and revels<br />
in direct competition which<br />
is the surest motivation to<br />
keep moving forward.<br />
Through our innovations<br />
and the service we provide,<br />
our aim is to remain<br />
the most consistent and<br />
most reactive tyre manufacturer.<br />
“Bonne route” and thank you<br />
for choosing <strong>Michelin</strong>.<br />

Technical information<br />
• Tyre markings explained: Example: 19/62-17 X TL N 20<br />
19 = Tread band width (cm)<br />
62 = Exterior diameter of the tyre (cm)<br />
17 = Rim diameter (inches)<br />
X = Radial tyre<br />
TL = Tubeless tyre<br />
N = Tread type<br />
20 = Compound<br />
• Rims: For optimal performance, respect recommended rim widths.<br />
• Re-cutting: Re-cutting may be required to adapt the pattern to the conditions<br />
of the moment. Clearance capacity can be considerably enhanced thanks<br />
to this technique.<br />
• Asymmetric <strong>tyres</strong>: It is important to ensure that asymmetric <strong>tyres</strong> are correctly<br />
positioned on the right-or left-hand side of the vehicle.<br />
• Pressures: Tyre pressures are always a function of three parameters:<br />
vehicle, tyre type and stage conditions. Pressure needs to be optimised for<br />
each individual case. Do not hesitate to consult us.<br />
Important: Our competition <strong>tyres</strong> are not homologated for road<br />
use. They must be used only on tracks or for racing according to<br />
our recommandations.<br />

In order to ensure the highest level of performance possible at<br />
all times, <strong>Michelin</strong> is constantly developing its range and<br />
reserves the right to introduce modifications in the course of<br />
the season.

Asphalt rally<br />
The constraints imposed on <strong>tyres</strong> by asphalt push them to their absolute<br />
limit. It is via the contact patches - which are barely bigger than the palm<br />
of an outstretched hand - that all the power is transmitted to the ground.<br />
The contact patches also have to cope with the considerable lateral forces<br />
generated under hard cornering. In damp conditions, <strong>tyres</strong> are designed to<br />
optimise contact with the road for high performance traction and grip. Wet<br />
weather <strong>tyres</strong> are capable of clearing up to 20 litres of water per second.<br />

ZA asymmetric. L= left R = right (fairly open pattern for a better<br />
traction on slippery surfaces).<br />
ZE asymmetric. (L and R), more open pattern to clear loose<br />
stones
Gravel rally<br />
The term ’gravel’ covers all surfaces that are not either asphalt or snow.<br />
Different types of terrain make specific demands on <strong>tyres</strong> which, in addition<br />
to resisting wear and outside aggression, are designed to cut through the<br />
loose top surface in search of firmer ground underneath.<br />
Mud, sand: compound 7<br />
Soft gravel: compounds 4 and 8<br />
Hard surfaces and buried stones: compounds 5 and 9<br />

Snow and ice rally<br />
By definition, grip is at a premium on the snow and ice encountered in winter<br />
rallies! The cocktail of dry portions, sheet ice and/or or snow frequently<br />
makes tyre choice complex. Performance is also a function of the quality of<br />
the bond between the rubber blocks and the metal studs. At 120 kph, each<br />
stud strikes the ground 17 times per second!<br />

245/80-16 Sand (G3) 806 192 2530 6,5 à 7,5<br />
Characteristics<br />
Rock (ex G1) for use on hard broken ground, can be used in sand by lowe-<br />
ring tyre pressure, must be re-inflated after sand use.<br />
G 2 multi purpose, narrower, good on rocky ground and sand.<br />
Sand (ex G 3) for sand use only.<br />
Advice:<br />
• For high speed running on hard ground: minimum pressure 2,3 bars<br />
• For the sand: standard running 1,4 bars<br />
• In case of being blocked in sand: 0,8 bar but immediately re-inflated.
BFGoodrich rally Raid<br />
In rally-raids, <strong>tyres</strong> play a particularly capital role because of the variety and<br />
hostility of the different terrains encountered. Tyres must effectively...<br />
- support the load of the car; a single tyre may be called upon to withstand<br />
a load of more than 3 tonnes. When landing after a jump, for example!<br />
- steer to ensure directional changes.<br />
- grip, often on very slippery surfaces.<br />
- be durable in order to cover competitive sections in excess of 1,000 km.<br />
- absorb shocks; <strong>tyres</strong> are the first element of the vehicle’s suspension system.<br />

Whatever the discipline, <strong>Michelin</strong> never ceases to demonstrate the performance<br />
of its motorsport products thanks to the reactivity of its technical<br />
teams, the strength of its partnerships and the high standard of its research<br />
and development department. This energy applies to a long list of events<br />
for which the development of the most competitive product is a multifaceted<br />
challenge to which <strong>Michelin</strong> rises without let up.<br />

Historic competition<br />
XAS: The first production tyre to feature an asymmetrical pattern. Its outstanding<br />
performance naturally led to it being used in competition under the<br />
appellation “FF”.<br />
TB: In response to popular demand, <strong>Michelin</strong> has decided to re-release this<br />
classic range in order to give a new lease of life to the star rally cars of the<br />
70s and 80s.<br />
