Product description

  • Winter tyre for urban driving and touring
  • Optimal grip on winter roads
  • Traction on snow

A winter tyre designed for urban, compact and family cars, the Michelin Alpin 5 offers optimal safety on dry, wet or snow-covered roads throughout the winter.

Safety: grip on cold wet roads optimised by the use of the Helio Compound 4G rubber which contains sunflower oil for use in low temperatures, high silica content, and elastomers to produce a more homogenous product.  High resistance to aquaplaning thanks to the lateral grooves, positioned for rapid water drainage.

Drivability: better traction on snow-covered surfaces thanks to the gripping edges formed by the high sipe density. Improved traction on snow thanks to its high void ratio and serrated directional tread.

Handling: StabiliGrip technology offers driving precision, tread blocks with auto-blocking multi-directional sipes.

What is the rezulteo score?

The rezulteo score is calculated considering three performance categories: economy, comfort and safety. When it comes to winter tyres, the performance criteria snow and ice are added. By weighting different basic performance criteria an overall score is determined. This weighting is calculated based on the tyre size category: economic, high performance or sports.
