22.06.2014fromJonathan P Good cold / wet performance on our rear wheal drive 320D. We run these on a separate set of rims and swap back to the standard tyres in Spring. Handling is no where near as precise as with the 18 inch Michelin Pilot Sports tyres. The Alpin tyres are also narrow compared to the Pilot Sports and hard driving in dry conditions would certainly cause wear. Knowing that the car is able to handle cold / wet / snow / ice is very reassuring and though winter tyres are not cheap they are much less expensive than an accident and insurance claim.
05.12.2011fromScoot Into my third Winter on these tyres. Wet & dry performance is excellent, much improved ride quality over summer run flats. On snow, good enough but not great they are probably more suited to FWD or 4WD drive vehicles. On RWD you might prefer something with slightly better snow performance. Overall an excellent tyre for cold/wet conditions with occasional snow. If you live in an area with very frequent snow then there are probably better options available.
29.09.2011fromRhys Morgan A great winter tyre, which inspires real confidence whatever the British roads throw at it.

The vision of our founders, Edouard and André Michelin, has guided the
development of the MICHELIN brand for more than 125 years: making driving as simple, safe, and
comfortable as possible – first with innovative tires and wheels, followed by road maps, travel guides, and
contributions toward improving traffic infrastructure. Along with this comes a strong engagement with the
environment, as modern mobility must be sustainable and not detrimental to the environment.
Each year the Michelin Group produces more than 178 million tires in 68
production facilities in 17 countries, and it operates sales networks in more than 170 countries. The product
offerings are many: from bicycle, passenger car, truck, motorcycle, and tractor tires, to tires for 5-ton earth-
moving machines. Michelin employs 111,700 people worldwide and owns one of the oldest, most famous
trademarks in the world – the legendary Michelin Man.
Targeted development: MICHELIN Total Performance
In the development of new products, Michelin faithfully pursues the concept of
"MICHELIN Total Performance", backed by the rigorous standard of always bringing together a number of
performance characteristics into a tire, to achieve optimal results. We follow this philosophy not only in the
development of our standard products, but also in motorsports. Numerous technical innovations help to
relieve burdens on the environment, drivers, and businesses. Hidden out of sight in tire casings, tread
designs, and rubber compounds, throughout their lives MICHELIN tires show their full potential: they offer
excellent grip, long life, and reduced fuel consumption thanks to their low rolling resistance.
To better understand the conditions which tires are subjected to in everyday
use, in the summer of 2014 Michelin began a unique research project – the Road Usage Lab. Vehicles from
3,000 drivers in Europe were equipped with special measurement devices to record data about the tires'
use. These valuable findings are being employed in the development of future tire models, making them
better suited to the needs of real drivers.
