FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Winter weather performance
• Improved controllability
• High speed durability

OVERVIEW

The Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 SUV is a performance, winter tire manufactured for SUVs.

Excellent winter weather traction is guaranteed with this tread design and winter compound. The symmetric tread elements firmly grip the road with the use of extra biting edges and improve traction even on ice- and snow-covered road surfaces. On the other hand, the winter compound maintains rubber flexibility in cold temperatures. These elements enable the tire's safe performance during winter conditions. Also, this tread design features wide grooves that disperse water and slush from below the footprint, preventing hydroplaning in wet situations.

The model also promotes great controllability and handling. The tread design and the rubber compound enable the tire's close road contact, which boosts steering responsiveness and driving stability. As a result, the steering response becomes faster and more precise to the driver's instructions, while the structure is stabilized under pressure. These elements guarantee great and full control over the vehicle. In this manner, cornering and maneuvering are also improved thanks to the siping detail on the wide shoulder blocks. At the same time, they shorten the braking distance by creating friction at the moment of the stopping. This tire offers the driver comfortable control over the vehicle at all times.

The Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 SUV also boosts driving durability. This model enables the tire's safe high speed performance, thanks to the strong internal structure and durable rubber compound. The tread design closely follows the road surface, while the reinforced structure maintains its optimal shape under pressure throughout its high speed performance. These elements guarantee excellent high speed durability and handling power.
