The Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4 is a all-season tyre for passenger cars. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 5 sizes (5 registrations including load and speed variants), for 20″ to 21″ rims.

How it compares in its sizes
We compared each size with all other all-season tyres of the same size and class in EPREL (5 sizes had at least four rivals). A size scores when its label is at least as good as 75% of them.
Strongest point: fuel efficiency. Weakest point: rolling noise, where most same-size rivals do as well or better.

Rolling noise
72 dB against a median of 72 dB in this size.
Estimates from the class ranges in Regulation (EU) 2020/740. A label class is a range, so a real tyre can sit anywhere inside it. Every 3 dB doubles the sound energy.
All 5 sizes
The small figure under each class is the share of same-size, same-season tyres this size matches or beats (“–” when fewer than five tyres share the size).
