Renewed Michigan Winter Driving Confidence!!!

After debating with myself to buy winter tires, im glad I did. I pick up trash for a living and the job requires me to be there 2 hours past midnite. Unfortunately, when I get up hardly any roads are plowed and after getting stuck in the base of my driveway countless times, these tires were my saving grace. Alittle pricey, but completely worth it. Im able to cut through my hilly neighborhood with ease, especially under wet, heavy conditions. What I noticed is that they have only gotten better since I put them on a month ago. Peace of mind and being able to get to my job with ease is all I could ever ask for, and these tires provide that.

Quiet, Comfortable and Exceptional Performance

A trusted brand that has provided a solution that performs well for mixed wintery conditions in Southern Ontario - snow, slush, ice, freezing rain, wet and dry/cold. The first thing that stood out with these tires were how quiet and comfortable they were to drive on, regardless if it was on city streets, highway or country roads. With regards to performance, it has everything I would expect from winter tires: excellent control/stability and maneuverability on the road, braking performance for sudden stops and handing in different winter conditions. Changing lanes on the highway over windrows (snow tracked mounds) is not a white knuckle experience with these tires. I have to say, that these tires live up to the ultra-performance rating while accommodating my "enthusiast" driving style. The only slight drawback I have is the lack-luster handling in the occasional heavy snowfall we get. This is where I have found the X-Ice performance better in this area (despite it being soft and squishy). With the lifespan and performance aging of the PA4s, unfortunately I cannot comment as I've only used these tires for 15K KM. In summary, for the price/performance, I recommend this tire.

Great winter tire!

I bought these this last year in anticipation of receiving my 2020 vehicle. I was able to drive them in some brief wet-snow conditions when my car came in tail-end of winter leading into spring (March 2020), and I was quite pleased with their performance and feel on the road. I look forward to seeing how they perform in snow-ice conditions this upcoming year. I looked long and hard to find winter tires that could fit my car in OEM size, and the only ones that would fit the bill were Pirelli or Michelin. I haven’t had the best experiences with Pirelli, so I went with Michelin; I couldn’t be happier with the decision! I’ll keep with Michelin when it comes time to change tires again.

Love these tires!

The grip is great. After installing them, I could feel it. Also, they're very stable, provide me a feeling of total control. I was surprised that they're pretty quiet too. Lexus is a very quiet car, and I think they fit quite well. I love the look and tread of the tires. So far so good. No snow yet, I will give you a follow up review if I can.

Transformational Tire!!

I put a set of new Alpin PA4's on my 2012 9,Porsche 911 Carrera S (991.1 ) I had 3 year old Pirelli P-Zero's before. What a difference! It doesn't get too wintry here on Vancouver Island. Hardly any snow ever, rain, and temps between 38F and 50F. The Pirellis had no grip in the cold. I was sliding sideways and the traction control was constantly kicking in. I know they're summer tires, so that's expected. What a difference! I'm blown away at just how much better the PA4's are. I felt like I was riding on a cloud instead of on hockey pucks, and there's so much grip. I am very impressed. It has totally changed the winter driving experience. The only downside is that my car is going to be a lot dirtier from all the driving!

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.

Nothing better than the Pilot Alpin PA6 for high powered Sports Cars

Over the past five years, I’ve used two full sets of Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 tires on my 2020 AMG GT C for winter driving, and they’ve been absolutely spectacular. At temperatures below 40°F (4°C), these tires provide better grip than most summer tires do at 60°F (15°C) and above. On dry roads, even at high speeds (up to 168 MPH / 270 KPH), I have full confidence in their performance when taking fast corners, even in temperatures below 20°F (-7°C). Braking performance is also exceptional. On damp surfaces, they inspire more confidence than track-focused tires like the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 while on dry surface. In wet or lightly snow-covered conditions, I can drive cautiously but confidently, knowing they will keep me safe and get me where I need to go. It’s worth noting that my GT C is RWD with nearly 600 HP, so maintaining grip in extreme cold is absolutely crucial—and these tires deliver.

Great Winter Tire

Drive aggressively every day during the winter - this tire handles everything my BMW 530 can throw at it. Handles well in all driving conditions not only here in Nebraska but driving through the mountains as well.

Excellent High Performance Winters

First winter on them and they're very good. Exceptional handling and ride on very cold days and bare pavement. Not as good in snow an ice as the X-Ice but they didnt have my size so these are the next best
