Pilot Alpin PA4 Tyres description & features

The Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 is a winter tyre that maintains flexibility at low temperatures. This is achieved using Michelin’s Helio Compound 4G, combined with sunflower oil. The Pilot Alpin PA4 also has a V-shaped tread which handles the removal of water and slush. 3D sipes (StabiliGrip) also provide traction in winter.

There are also outer edge blocks designed to provide support during cornering (combined with the removal channels in the middle tread). Certain sizes also have Michelin’s ZP run-flat construction. The PA4 is designed for winter use under 7 degrees C, and is available in sizes 17 to 21 inches. We sell the Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 with ZP run-flats here at Tyres.co.uk.

Highlights

  • Winter flexibility at low temperatures
  • V-shaped tread for water and slush
  • Run-flat versions in certain sizes

Excels at performing under wet, cold, or icy scenarios, but does not do well in extreme heavy snow conditions.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 255/35R19
Although I have yet to test them in snow, I have found them to work well in cold and wet road conditions. There is hardly any change in the amount of noise they make, but there has been a decline in fuel economy by about 1 mile per gallon.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 255/35R19
These are winter tyres. In the summer, I usually go with Pirelli P Zero. Choices for winter tyres are few and far between for this size and customers are often met with sticker shock. Because of the height and width of the tyres, they are not ideal for winter conditions. Surprisingly, they performed great for their first winter season. I drive a sports car and plan on using it during the bad weather, not on days with terrible road conditions, of course. In really cold weather, winter tyres are absolutely a necessity. Just know, if you buy these tyres like I did, the front tyres are smaller with a different tread pattern. It's not a mistake, but it's certainly something I haven't experienced before with all my years of buying tyres.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 255/35R18
I bought these because they were on sale, and my old Sottozeros were almost done at 3mm. I haven't driven a ton of miles on them yet, but they have been really grippy. They have a nice balance and work well with my car's xDrive system. I've had them from -5° to +10°C and they have not lost grip or handling. With winter tyres, there is a little more road noise than with summer tyres, but it is not too bad. The only downside is that they seem to collect every stone when they are parked on the gravel in my driveway. But, aside from that, a good purchase!

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 255/35R19
I received my car just before the summer ended and immediately started researching winter tyres. Everyone I talked to or consulted online said that using a rear-wheel-drive sports car in winter was a bit crazy. I have had these tyres for about 12 weeks and they've been incredible in all types of weather. I have to say, the cold and wet grip is astonishing. I feel completely sure about speeding through the corners. Snow, slush, and ice braking grip is phenomenal. The car feels very stable, and it's hard to lose grip even when I try. I am so impressed with my Michelin tyres that I am already thinking about using them in summer. I plan to buy some Pilot Sport 4s when spring comes.

I just used these tyres for a trip from London to West Lavington, which took roughly 2.5 hours. While we are only just entering the depth of winter, heavy rain and muddy patches were present. These tyres gave excellent handling and grip on my powerful rear-wheel drive car. I never had to worry about stability or getting stuck in the mud when I drove onto the country estate.
