Opinion from outside the UK

Michelin Alpin 5 at the beginning behaved fantastically. I was quite surprised by their grip, and in particular the suppression of lateral slippage (rear-wheel drive). Unfortunately, with the number of kilometers covered their grip decreases. When a car with rear-wheel drive and 160 hp after 4 months you will see and feel already clear decrease adhesion. These are the tyres for a rather wealthy clients - have fantastic properties, but do not belong to the most lively. You have to reckon with replacing every 3 seasons - unless someone goes to 2 mm tread :) Read more Collapse

If you live in the countryside winter tyres are a must, not just for snow, ice and mud, but simply for knowing that you are as safe as you can be. I've used Alpin 4s before - these are just as good if not better. The only downside is that because of all the extra grip, the fuel consumption suffers a bit. But overall it's a small price to pay.

Opinion from outside the UK

Michelin ALPIN5 worked brilliantly during the winter season. Driving in difficult conditions was scary to, and great tires worked well on both dry and icy / snow. A slight increase in combustion, the noise level acceptable considering the safety and comfort we feel when traveling. I highly recommend these tires. If I could have more time to consider the decision on the selection of tires, undoubtedly choice would be to Michelin Alpin5. Excellent product. Read more Collapse

Opinion from outside the UK

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. Read more Collapse

Technology description: Michelin ALPIN 5 is a response to the needs of all drivers who expect their winter tyres to provide excellent performance regardless of the weather and driving safety in any conditions.

The model is equipped with a directional tread pattern which ensures the appropriate traction on snow and increased aquaplaning resistance. With its optimised structure, the tyre also offers improved driving precision. The sipes deployed at the extreme depths of the tread blocks provide maximum performance parameters for the whole of the tyre’s lifespan. This is also supported by the distribution of pressures acting against the surface of the ALPIN 5, so the tread wears uniformly and slowly.

The tyre was designed using an innovative rubber compound ensuring good performance parameters in low temperatures. With this, the ALPIN 5 provides better grip on snowy and wet surfaces and also reduces fuel consumption. The Helio Compound 4G rubber mixture contains sunflower oil and silica. Thanks to its flexibility, the tread adheres to the road with its maximum area no matter the weather. As a result, the grip and stability while driving always remains optimum.

The combination of high-quality components with the optimised tread pattern improves the acoustic comfort inside and outside of the vehicle. Noise generated during operation are effectively dampened so the driver and passengers may enjoy quiet inside the vehicle.
