Michelin Latitude Alpin
This model is a Performance Winter tire developed for the owners of light trucks, SUVs, crossovers, and other all-wheel-drive vehicles. It comes to deliver a smooth, quiet ride along with long wear and good traction when it comes to wet, snow-covered, and icy roads.
Michelin Latitude Alpin has an Helio Compound molded into a directional tread pattern that presents a continuous center rib along with independent intermediate and shoulder blocks designed to provide more stability on dry roads. Due to wide tread grooves, the tire received high hydroplaning resistance on wet roads and traction in slush, offering a safe and comfortable driving experience.
To improve traction on snow and ice surfaces this model comes with bi-directional self-locking sipes. One of the most outstanding innovations by French tire manufacturers is the Michelin Comfort Control Technology. It combines computer-optimized design and unique manufacturing methods to improve vibration and road noise. For safety reasons the Michelin uses a special internal structure that includes twin steel belts reinforced with spirally wound polyamide cord to support the tread, enhancing ride comfort.
This model is available from 18 to 19-inch sizes backed by a 20,000-mile tread life warranty.
