Improved| Increased Wet Grip: 15% more grip than the MICHELIN Road 5 tire in wet conditions thanks to 100% MICHELIN Silica Technology tread compounds & a tread pattern featuring MICHELIN Water Evergrip Technology. Ride Even Longer: The MICHELIN Road 6 tire delivers 10% longer tread life compared to the previous generation. Dedication to Innovation: The MICHELIN Road 6 tire typifies two decades of ongoing innovations & MICHELIN Technologies from our highest level of expertise. Increased Corning Stability: MICHELIN 2CT+ Technology, which has been standard on the rear tire, is applied to the front tire for better rigidity at lean, & more stability when cornering, especially under strong acceleration or heavy braking, compared to the previous generation. Review: 4.5 of 5 stars: Very happy with the tires, the price I paid for and the ability to pay in 3 equal payments. I was surprised to receive only one tire a few days later, while the rear tire arrived about a week and a half later. The tires were made 0523, I purchased them in June 2023. That's "fresh rubber" Review: My bime had a skinny 160/60 factory and the 180/55 fills the space in the back much better. Rides great and the grip is phenominal. Will be buying another when this one becomes white smoke ## Features - Increased Wet Grip: 15% more grip than the MICHELIN Road 5 tire in wet conditions thanks to 100% MICHELIN Silica Technology tread compounds and a tread pattern featuring MICHELIN Water Evergrip Technology - Ride Even Longer: The MICHELIN Road 6 tire delivers 10% longer tread life compared to the previous generation - Dedication to Innovation: The MICHELIN Road 6 tire typifies two decades of ongoing innovations and MICHELIN Technologies from our highest level of expertise - Increased Corning Stability: MICHELIN 2CT+ Technology, which has been standard on the rear tire, is applied to the front tire for better rigidity at lean, and more stability when cornering, especially under strong acceleration or heavy braking, compar ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BCQXZXMV | | Brand | MICHELIN | | Construction | Radial | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (80) | | Date First Available | 15 Mar. 2024 | | Item Weight | 6.26 kg | | Item model number | 89542 | | Manufacturer part number | 89542 | | Rim Width | 17 Inches | | Section Width | 180 Inches | | UTQG | 400 AA A | ## Product Details - **Brand:** MICHELIN - **Load capacity:** 365.14 kg - **Load index:** 77 - **Rim size:** 17 Inches - **Rim width:** 17 Inches - **Section width:** 180 Inches - **Size:** 180/55ZR17 - **Speed rating:** Y - **Tread type:** Asymmetrical - **Tyre aspect ratio:** 55 ## Images ![Road 6 Rear Tire (180/55ZR-17), black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61BZ1ByRDjL.jpg) ![Road 6 Rear Tire (180/55ZR-17), black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61rOTgPdmDL.jpg) ![Road 6 Rear Tire (180/55ZR-17), black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Qko0bdVeL.jpg) ![Road 6 Rear Tire (180/55ZR-17), black - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61AAMzi5pNL.jpg) ![Road 6 Rear Tire (180/55ZR-17), black - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61arOA+cpYL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this just the rear tire?

Great to have in rainy florida. They have never slipped on me, even when caught in heavy downpours. Mounted them on my mt-07. Daily riding for 10 months, i had to replace the rear because of 3 separate punctures from debris on the road but tread still had half its life left. ## Frequently Bought Together - MICHELIN Road 6 Rear Tire (180/55ZR-17), black - MOTION PRO Rim Shield II Tire and Wheel Tool - CKAuto 1/4oz, 0.25oz, Black, Adhesive Stick on Wheel Weights, EasyPeel Type.
