Michelin Pilot One Front - Brand New

Apparently, the tire companies are making track day tires and branding them w/ the race tire model names and tread patterns. I think this is very deceiving and potentially dangerous to someone like myself who is expecting a race compound but that's another thread. I unknowingly bought one of these. You can tell b/c there is no compound markings.

This is the track day compound not a race tire, but looks like a new Pilot One.

It's brand new, never even mounted, and would serve anyone for the upcoming Grattan days very well.

$150 shipped.

Aren't they called the "Power One" not "Pilot One" or is this something different?

Just checked the sticker (which is still on the tire) and you're right. it's Power One. But like I said, it only LOOKS like the race tire. It's a track day compound according to my tire rep.

I just want the buy to know what they're getting.
