Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 Tyres in Newcastle upon Tyne

• ★★★★★★★★★★Henrik A.

  I recommend these tyres if you own a Model 3. If you're a Model 3 driver and considering moving up a size, these tyres are great for me. I used to have PA4s and the 5s are definitely quieter. They offer great handling on my RWD. Moving up a size will impact range but I have recorded a good bump of 5-15Wh/km. The bigger size has improved my ride quality because of the improved handling when going over potholes. Although don't expect it to entirely make up for firm suspension. The extra width did help avoid minor kerb damage to my wheels (though if you hit the kerb hard enough, no tyre will protect your wheels). Considering all of this and that I got them for around £1300, that great price makes me recommend these over the factory options every time.

  For a front-wheel drive, traction in snow is pretty good. Outstanding braking performance. As anticipated, these winter tyres change the vehicle's dynamics. Although the handling is softer because of the 50 profile, it can still manage corners well without understeering. In sport mode with DCC it can feel a bit bouncy, but that's winter tyres for you. Overall, very happy; a clear step up from the Davanti Wintoura, and new tyres always feel good.

  These winter tyres do okay for my rear-wheel drive Jaguar F-Type, but snow traction could be better than I was hoping for.

  I purchased these tyres for my Golf R specifically for winter use, and I wanted a high-performance, winter-snow-weather-friendly option. I limited tested them on some snowy mountain roads and they had superb grip and comfort and low noise levels in a snow, wet, and dry variety of conditions. Initially, I was initially a little cautious about grip in the first couple of hundred kilometres, but it seemed to improve (probably from removing any manufacturing residue). I think these tyres have a very nice attractive design on the sidewall, if that matters to you.

  Excellent. The ride is very comfortable and the handling is a notch better.

  These tyres greatly differ in how they manage cold and wet conditions. In high-performance summer tyres, these ones are by far better in handling the wet conditions. Despite the road being wet, the car feels stable and does not lose it's grip which by the way, I do not ease up on the speed.
