Michelin ALPIN 5 - User reviews

To be honest I had a big dilemma with decision which generation to choose. Finaly I have decided in August to buy Michelin ALPIN 5 and by now I am not disappointed. The biggest advantages are: tyres are very quiet (I can hear them at least at the turns with a speed greater), the grip on the bends, regardless of the surface (I mean dry and wet), is very good, it is very difficult to have some opinion about the grip on snow or slush, but I am full of good thoughts. Without any doubts I fully recommend those tyres to all users. One of the best Michelin tyres I've ever had. Best regards,

Michelin ALPIN 5 are great winter tyres. This a new generation of ALPIN tyres, last season I used ALPIN 4. The decision to buy these tyres came from my positive expierance which I have driving on ALPIN 4. The main feature of these tyres is their noise lever. The tyres are incredibely quiet. Noise level is simmilar to the summer tyres. Fantastic grip - on the dry and on wet surfaces. You can drive fast and the grip still good. Due to fact that we have not very hard winter, I did not have the chance to test this tyre in each weather conditions. I was not able to check it on snow. But if it would be competetive with ALPIN 4, this Michelin tyre will be the best that I have ever had.

I have fitted just two new Michelin ALPIN 5 on the one axel. I couldn't decide, because there were no reviews, but finally I have decided to buy them. I want to add that within last 7 years I had used only Michelin Alpin 3. Tyres are absolutely fantastic. The rubber is so soft, that I could belive how light were they. My fitter have confirmed that those tyres are the softer tyres that he has ever fitted. The grip on the snow is fantastic, tyres stick to the road. The same thing on the dry road. Very hard break off the grip. Micheli ALPIN 5 are also one of the quitest tyres I have ever used! No unnecessary noise. I have using them only two weeks now, but believe me, I am delighted. Now it is difficult to say something about tread wear. Hopefully it will be just like with the Alpine 3, which I was using for last 6 seasons and the tread still looks fine. Maybe the reason is that the winter season is so short. I fully recommend these tyres to every user. Michelin proved one more time, that is one of the best brands!

After przesiadce of Debica Frigo 2 and after many experiments with other winter tires is to certify that this is one of the best tires - put it on a par with Continental T830 and T850, and Yokohama WDrive. For too long, the snow was not there, but I came across the most rain during the trip to Muszyny the end of January. Alpin5 quietly gave advice in deep snow and on ice covered with snow. The tire does not "put" to the sides when driving faster along the arc. For this is quiet. Consumption approx. 5000km especially can not see. I would recommend to anyone who wants to rapidly and safely enjoy the pleasure of driving.

I bought Michelin Alpin 5 at a high risk, because there was no time for any testing. Previous seasons on Goodyear UG7 and UG7 +. Annual mileage of about 50000km-60000km. Tyres are outstanding, quiet, very well drain water and slush. Very good handling in the snow, both on the straight and in the corners. On the ice, no tyre stands a chance, but all in all I could drive without any major problems. Generally, it was worth the chance. I do not judge the durability because it takes time. I would recommend!

Super tire in every way, that I had the best so far, and I had already a lot. Taken on them 45 thousand miles in one season, beats annually about 120 thousand km, (BMW 5 E60 3.0 d, size 225x50x17 and not worn more like 35%, I would recommend with a clear conscience. Mega quiet (like summer Michelin). Conditions do not have any importance for the tires, you're probably always feel behind the wheel.

Tires excel very well. In the same way on the highway and in the mountains on snow-covered road. On these tires I did a lot of kilometers this winter and well exercised. For tylnonapędowego cars with a capacity of approx. 200ps acquitted himself very well, kept in the turns and would discharge water. I would heartily recommend

Routes outside the city and in the city. The first feeling after the assumption of winter tires is such that it certainly is winter tires. Well, no difference after changing tires summer, no noise as it happens with winter tyres or more combustion - business as usual, I sincerely recommend !!

Generally riding on tires to the west and at speeds above 170 feel a slight whistle, but it is a trifle, driving 210km / h can feel confident tire glued to the road does not have any problems with her, I sincerely recommend
