Big snow fall early Nov. here in Ontario. First time out in snow on these and wow they are awesome. Tried to test myself to see how much glide, slide, grip and stop was on these and I was super impressed. They gripped like a champ and I felt super in control. Great comfortable and responsive ride. SO thrilled I purchased the for my car.

The Pilot Alpin 5 Winter Tires have transformed my winter driving experience. They offer exceptional traction, handling, and safety on both snow and ice, without compromising on comfort or durability. For anyone looking to navigate winter roads with confidence, I highly recommend giving these tires a try. They're not just an expense; they're an investment in safety and peace of mind during the winter season.

I've driven 10,000+ kms during the winter of 2019/2020, 90% of my driving is on the QEW/400-series highways in Ontario. Mercedes recommends 17" wheels for the GLK, but having 20" OE wheels with AMG package I opt'd to go with 19" wheels to maintain handling, and I never regretted it. The tires are quiet, comfortable, corner and turn-in well, and soak up the potholes. Although I've never had the opportunity to try it in deep snow conditions, traction in dry and wet/snow is excellent, and able to handle turbo-diesel torque in high boost conditions, allowing seamless thrust with the 4Matic all-wheel drive system regardless of weather. I've also noticed the benefit of quick recovery time when the tire hydroplanes in wet snow/slush/rain. The only downside would be a bit of tread squirm under hard/panic braking, but it's to be expected with the narrow tread blocks (Alpin A4 winter tires did the same; similar tread design); on a SUV it would be more noticeable than on a car due to more weight transfer. If you're a hard braker, then the Pilot Alpin PA4 might be the better choice. For most people, this tire is an excellent choice for urban areas. Previously, I've purchased Pilot Alpin PA2/PA3/PA4's, X-Ice3 and Alpin A4's, and await installation of the X-Ice Snow on another vehicle---I've always been happy with the performance of the Michelin family of winter tires; my number one choice if available in my tire size. Highly recommended!

he Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 is an excellent winter tire that delivers confident grip on snow, ice, and wet roads. It handles surprisingly well for a winter tire, with great steering response and a quiet, comfortable ride. While it's a bit pricey, the performance and durability make it worth the investment for anyone needing serious winter traction without sacrificing comfort.

I needed to change my car tires. All of them. And so far this one's work pretty good. There's no more unbalancing or bumping feeling while I drive . It's pretty safety.

I been using Michelin tires for decade and always same good results in my SUV Expedition XLT, for traction,Durable, miles,quality performance in road or all terrain is one of the best tires in Market

Best car tyres there is around these our all round great performance good handling great traction and very low noise love getting these for my car would not have any other

I would give 5 stars if it had the same dry condition handling performance as the previous PA4. A winter performance tire should not be losing performance in its latest iteration.

Excellent winter tyre particularly for using in the mountains in Europe. The car felt stable in snow and ice and fitted the car beatifically. Fuel consumption and noise levels were also reasonable for this type of tyre.

I would not recommend. I had a set on my Porsche and the rears lasted me only 15,300 kms, so durability is a serious issue. Will not be purchasing again. I’ve trusted Michelin for years but this is just unacceptable.
