Michelin Pilot Alpin PA5
Description
The MICHELINPilot Alpin5 tire offers control whatever the winter conditions. Winter control and driving precision acclaimed by premium car manufacturers. A winter-focused compound molded into a highly siped, directional tread pattern features broad shoulder blocks and a wide, central groove to blend stability and cornering grip on dry roads with hydroplaning resistance and traction in slush, snow and on ice. A specialized undertread minimizes energy dissipation to reduce rolling resistance and aid fuel economy, while the two-ply, polyester casing manages the balance between comfort and durability. Two high-strength steel belts supporting the tread are reinforced by a polyamide cap ply to aid in handling responsiveness and provide high-speed durability.
Features
- Improvement in braking performance on all types of winter road surfaces (snow, wet and dry).
- A new directional tread pattern with a center groove increases resistance to hydroplaning.
- Improved snow, wet and dry grip using the latest generation tread compound that integrates a new functional polymer.
