  • Tick Icon Car
    Car tyre:

    Designed for cars, rather than vans, 4x4s or commercial vehicles.

    A stronger sidewall lets this tyre carry more weight than a standard tyre of the same size. Marked XL on the sidewall.

  • Tick Icon Winter
    Winter tyres:

    Designed for temperatures below 7°C. Summer tyre rubber hardens in the cold and loses grip, while a winter compound stays soft and holds the road in cold, wet and snowy conditions.

Product description & features

The Michelin Alpin 6 is a winter tyre for passenger cars that improve traction on snow for the life of the tyre. Michelin Alpin 6 uses EverGrip technology, which generates new grooves as the tyre wears. The Alpin 6 has deep snow channels that run front to back and blocks on the outer edge of the tread that bite into snow. The fine slits across the tread pattern help the tyre create new edges for traction on winter roads as the tyre wears. The Alpin 6 also uses Michelin's innovative winter rubber that uses functional polymers that remain flexible at low temperatures.

The Alpin 6 has also replaced the Alpin 5 and holds the 3PMSF designation for tyres that meet the severe snow requirements. These tyres are effective at temperatures below 7 degrees Celcius. The Alpin 6's changing tread pattern helps the tyre remain effective at winter snow traction for the whole life of the tyre. Tyres.co.uk sells the Michelin Alpin 6.

Highlights

  • Deep snow channels

The new tyres give me more confidence driving in the winter because they have better grip on the road in bad weather.

Tyre review for Michelin Alpin 6 195/45R16 84H XL
I'm pleased with the way these tyres grip and perform. I just need to make sure I change them for the summer ones when the weather heats up because otherwise they will wear out quickly.
