High performance winter tires provide a nice blend of crisp handling, high-speed capabilities and snow and ice traction. These tires are branded with mountain/snowflake symbol to meet severe snow service standards. High performance winter tires often come in low profiles and large wheel diameter sizes to fit luxury coupes, sports cars, crossover and sport utility vehicles.

Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 SUV tire was developed to meet the needs of enthusiast drivers of performance-tuned pickup trucks, crossovers and SUVs who don't want wintry conditions to prevent them from enjoying their vehicles year-round. 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, reinforced polyester casing improves sidewall robustness for added 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. Pilot Alpin 5 SUV winter radials meet the industry's severe snow service requirements and are branded with the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol. Snow platform indicators (the equivalent of "snow wear bars") are molded into the Pilot Alpin 5 SUV tread grooves to inform the driver when deep snow traction will be reduced as the tire's tread reaches the point where the remaining tread depth becomes less effective in deep snow. Install Pilot Alpin 5 SUV tires in sets of four only.
