That front tyre looks awful. What is happening to those sidewalls??

Last time Michelin used that tyre width width it looked much better. These look like some bubble tyres from monster trucks

Looks exactly the same to me. Lack of Pirelli graphics is what you're probably reacting to.

When Pirelli has been testing current width tyres they remove side wall graphics and they look just as bad.

As current rears maybe.

Is it a 2016 or 2017 track width?

lmao these look like monster truck tires.

Interesting, gone for a centreless design to cut down on aquaplaning - they might actually work even better than the current tyres even with the extra width.

[Phillyred]

I just wish (like others have mentioned) they went for a lower profile design.. Those rims look silly in this day and age.
