A1 reco

Brilliant tires. Not too discernible from my PS4S Michelin performance tires. A1 handling and relatively quiet. My fave winter setup.

Best winter tires owned

I’ve had these exceptional tires on my Car for 2 seasons now. I’m approaching my 3rd winter. They are simply the best snow tires I’ve owned. If you consider using “all season” tires. I suggest you give your head a shake. You need proper winter tires and these are them

Great & steady

I bought this brand 20 months ago and I am so happy with my choice. These tires are strong, steady on ice, very stable on road what ever the winter condition is and almost no tire noise. I bought them for my Lexus IS 350 2020, so you can imagine why I chose them. It's worth the price that I paid for. I highly recommend them.

What a drive - so good to have Winters that perform

Recommended by my Tuner (Independent Tuning in Toronto). I run Michelin PS4S's in the Summer (also highly recommended) and wanted a Winter Tire that performs - I drive all Winter - moderate snow & black ice (2012 Audi S4 - performance modified). ....these Alpin's are not far off most of the the handling capabilities of the PS4S

+1 for these with the S4

I'm heading through my second winter on these. On packed snow, I've found them to be truly great. They stop and turn very well. My neighborhood is hilly and doesn't get plowed. Traveling uphill through 6 to 8 inches of snow, there's definitely some wheel slip - but they've always gotten me through the hills and onto plowed roads. Descending steep hills is a non-issue. No sliding at all. A good match for the S4 - they make the pretty much bullet-proof in winter.

Great Winter Traction (Particularly in Urban Winters)

These tires have amazing traction, particularly in the cold wet (and dry) conditions one mostly sees in urban winters. These tires still have great snow and ice traction, but these tires particularly shine (over and above other winter tires I have tried) when it is cold and the roads are either wet or dry ... the grip experience is almost like driving in the summer with summer tires. The only downfall is that they wear quickly.

Great tire

Tires are great and behave like a summer tire, my only concern is they’re noisy on the highway. Was nice to see a Michelin tire actually made in France.

Good performer low life

Great tires, got them with my car and put maybe 35,000kms on them as I do not drive often. Sadly these tires are already nearing the wearbar and are getting quite dangerous at around 5/32-6/32.

Lesson learned: smaller tires for winter?

I bought these tires last winter and they impressed in terms of virtually no increase in noise level, no change in performance and minimal impact on fuel economy. Unfortunately I was disappointed in their performance on snow and ice - slipping more on my AWD Audi than my previous FWD car using x-ice tires. I've since learned that it might be better to have purchased smaller winter tires but have never had to do that before on previous vehicles to achieve confident traction using x-ice tires.

Ice traction seriously degrades at 6/32nds tread depth remaining.

I live in Calgary where winters have constant thawing and freezing cycles, making road conditions treacherous at times. These are very capable tires when new or slightly worn and have decent tread durability. At approximately 35,000 Kms with timely tire rotations and maintaining pressures regularly, they are now worn down evenly to 6/32nds of an inch remaining (approx. 50% worn). I was hoping to get another winter out of them, but I no longer feel safe driving on icy surfaces as they don`t grip nearly as well as they used to. Perhaps my expectations are unreasonable, but I am a bit disappointed in their deterioration in traction, stability and performance at this stage.
