Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 tire

 

The Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 is a performance winter tire developed for drivers of high-performance sedans, coupes and sports cars who don’t want winter to keep their vehicle parked. A winter-focused compound is molded into a highly siped, directional tread pattern with broad shoulder blocks and a wide central groove, blending cornering grip on dry roads with hydroplaning resistance and traction in slush, snow and on ice. EV-Ready construction and 3PMSF certification make it a favorite OE fitment among premium automakers.

Key Highlights

EV-Ready construction for heavier, higher-torque vehicles
3-Peak Mountain Snowflake certified
Wide central groove for stability & hydroplaning resistance
Highly siped directional tread for cold-weather grip
Approved by AMG, Audi, BMW, Mercedes and Porsche
30,000-mile limited treadwear warranty

Technology

Directional Winter Tread: Broad shoulder blocks and a wide central groove combine dry-road cornering stability with hydroplaning resistance and traction in slush and snow.
Specialized Undertread: A dedicated layer minimizes energy dissipation to reduce rolling resistance and support fuel economy.
Reinforced Casing & Belts: A two-ply polyester casing and steel belts reinforced with a polyamide cap ply balance ride comfort with high-speed durability.

Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 SUV tire

 

The Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 SUV brings the same performance-winter philosophy to enthusiast drivers of performance-tuned pickups, crossovers and SUVs who don’t want winter to slow them down. The winter-focused, highly siped directional tread pairs broad shoulder blocks with a wide central groove for cornering stability and hydroplaning resistance, while a reinforced two-ply polyester casing improves sidewall robustness for the added weight of an SUV or truck.

Key Highlights

EV-Ready construction for heavier, higher-torque vehicles
3-Peak Mountain Snowflake certified
Reinforced polyester casing for sidewall durability
Wide central groove for stability & hydroplaning resistance
Steel belts with polyamide cap ply for high-speed durability
30,000-mile limited treadwear warranty

Technology

Directional Winter Tread: Broad shoulder blocks and a wide central groove blend cornering grip on dry roads with hydroplaning resistance and traction in slush, snow and on ice.
Reinforced Sidewall Construction: A two-ply, reinforced polyester casing improves sidewall robustness for the added weight performance SUVs and trucks carry.
Specialized Undertread: A dedicated layer minimizes energy dissipation to reduce rolling resistance and support fuel economy.


Performance Winter / SnowPilot Alpin PA4
Sports Car / Coupe / SedanUltra High Performance Winter


Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 tire

 

The Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 is built for enthusiasts who may encounter snow-covered roads while driving their ultra-high-performance sports cars, sedans or coupes. A full silica-based, sunflower-oil-enriched Helio Compound+ tread stays flexible in freezing temperatures and is molded into a heavily grooved asymmetric pattern with Michelin’s high-density Stabiligrip 3D sipe technology for confident acceleration, braking and handling.

Key Highlights

Helio Compound+: silica & sunflower-oil tread for cold flexibility
Stabiligrip 3D sipe technology
Asymmetric, heavily grooved tread design
FAZ-reinforced twin steel belts for handling & high speeds
Green X low-rolling-resistance manufacturing
Approved by Porsche SE

Technology

Helio Compound+: A full silica-based, sunflower-oil-enriched rubber compound stays more flexible in low temperatures, delivering better traction in cold conditions.
Stabiligrip 3D Sipes: High-density 3D sipes and wrap-around shoulder designs enhance acceleration, braking and handling on snow-covered roads.
FAZ Belt Technology: Twin steel belts reinforced with spirally wound polyester filaments combine stable, confident handling with high-speed capability and ride comfort.


Studded WinterX-Ice North 4
Passenger Car / SUVStudded Winter


Michelin X-Ice North 4 studded tire

 

The Michelin X-Ice North 4 is a factory-studded winter tire engineered for the harshest winter conditions, where studless tires reach their limit. Up to 250 triangular studs, inspired by World Rally Championship tires, are computer-placed for maximum ice grip with unusually low noise for a studded tire, while a V-shaped directional tread and notched, interlocking sipes deliver stability and control in snow, slush and on ice.

Key Highlights

Up to 250 factory-fitted triangular studs
WRC-inspired stud shape for improved ice grip
Computer-optimized stud placement reduces road noise
V-shaped directional tread sheds water & slush
Notched, interlocking 3D sipes for winter stability
Manufactured in Canada

Technology

Triangular Stud Design: Studs shaped like those on WRC rally cars minimize road contact from the stud body while letting the hard alloy insert bite into icy surfaces.
Optimized Stud Placement: A computer-designed stud pattern reduces cabin noise, making the X-Ice North 4 notably quieter than traditional studded tires above 25 mph.
V-Shape Directional Tread: A high tread-to-void ratio in the tread center improves performance on dry pavement and melting snow, while evacuating water and slush.


Studless Ice & SnowX-Ice Snow

Michelin X-Ice Snow tire

 

The Michelin X-Ice Snow is a studless winter tire built for confidence across winter’s many different road conditions, from clear cold pavement to deep snow to glare ice. The FleX-Ice 2.0 compound uses inclusion technology to generate micro-roughness on the tread surface for extra grip, while a V-Shape directional tread with wider grooves and two types of full-depth sipes work together for consistent traction throughout the tire’s life.

Key Highlights

FleX-Ice 2.0 high-silica tread compound
V-Shape directional tread with wider grooves
Two types of full-depth 3D sipes
Improved hydroplaning and slush performance
3-Peak Mountain Snowflake certified
40,000-mile limited treadwear warranty

Technology

FleX-Ice 2.0 Compound: Inclusion technology generates micro-roughness on the tread surface to improve grip on both snow and ice, while high silica content preserves flexibility in severe cold.
V-Shape Directional Tread: Wider grooves than the previous generation improve hydroplaning and slush performance while boosting snow-to-snow traction in loose conditions.
Full-Depth Sipe System: Notched sipes add biting edges for adverse conditions while variable-thickness sipes support the tread blocks for a stable contact patch throughout the tire’s wear life.


Studless Winter · Next-GenX-Ice Snow+
CUV / SUV / Pickup / Sedan / EVStudless Winter



 

The Michelin X-Ice Snow+ is Michelin’s most advanced studless winter tire, built to optimize braking across ice, snow, wet and dry conditions from the first mile to the last. The proven X-Ice tread pattern carries over, but an all-new Flex-Ice 3.0 compound raises chemical grip well beyond its predecessor, while Piano Acoustic Tuning Technology keeps the cabin quiet and a low-energy-loss formula helps preserve fuel economy or EV range.

Key Highlights

Flex-Ice 3.0 next-generation tread compound
Up to 26% longer tread life than leading competitors
Up to 34% better fuel efficiency / EV range vs. competitors
Piano Acoustic Tuning Technology for a quieter ride
3PMSF and Ice Grip Symbol (IGS) certified
Sizes for CUVs, SUVs, pickups, sedans, hybrids & EVs

Technology

Flex-Ice 3.0 Compound: A new elastomer, oil and silica filler increase chemical grip, delivering stronger braking on wet, dry, ice and snow surfaces than the outgoing X-Ice Snow.
Piano Acoustic Tuning Technology: An alternating pattern of two- and three-sipe tread blocks, arranged like piano keys, is engineered to reduce road noise for a quieter cabin.
Low Energy-Loss Formula: A compound tuned to minimize rolling resistance helps preserve fuel economy or extend EV range without giving up winter traction.
