Michelin's Classic tires are designed for vintage automobiles. Using modern materials and manufactured to original specifications, these tires are manufactured in small batches and are designed to preserve the vehicle's driving character alongside period-correct aesthetics.
The XWX is Michelin's Grand Touring Summer tire originally built for use on the legendary supercars of the 1970s. The unique styling and focus on absolute performance prioritized the kind of precise handling owners expected from vehicles operating at the upper limits of mechanical possibility. The XWX delivers the full experience of classic driving and traction to warm, dry and wet conditions.
The XWX features a symmetric tread pattern that fuses its classic styling with the advanced rubber compounds available today to produce a tire that is simultaneously as practical as it is stylish. Minimal void maintains the XWX's connection with the road for the kind of potent traction and reflexive handling under acceleration and braking that supercar owners of the era expected. The XWX's system of water displacement channels work in concert with a dense application of wavy sipes to resist hydroplaning in wet conditions.
The XWX features two-ply sidewall construction for improved handling responsiveness along with added durability. The two-ply polyester casing supports two wide, high-strength steel belts, and a polyamide reinforcement offers added strength for high-speed capabilities.
