In my opinion, Michelin Pilot Alpin PA3 is not a bad tyre as it's definitely better than my previous Dunlop Sport.

Michelin definitely makes tyres that are at a high level. maybe they're not always the best in tests, however Michelin Pilot Alpin PA3 are one of the leading models. Safe, durable, reliable. I recommend

I won't write whether or not and how the tyre performs in winter, because in this price range and with normal driving there is not much of a difference between the manufacturers (I'm writing about driving in accordance with the law). However, when it comes to driving comfort, Michelin Pilot Alpin PA3 is second to none. It is also incredibly quiet and absorbs all bumps. The drawback is that it's already hard to buy, and PA4 has the compound changed so it'll probably lose its precedessor's comfort.

Properly August holds, quite quiet, you can go faster. High price for such a performance - they are cheaper counterparts to choose from that are at least as good as this.

Michelin Pilot Alpin PA3 is great, but only on dry csurface. On wet it behaves correctly. But as soon as the snow fell and roads became slippery I felt unsafe. Especially on wet and slushy snow. I could notice poor traction only after driving through a snow-covered estate. It's even stranger due to the fact the tyre's not cheap and the brand is well-known around the world. In my previous car I had summer Michelins (sensational!). In winter I used Fuldas, despite it was a lower class tyre and the prices were lower! I tested Michelin Pilot Alpin PA3 on an empty square in front of a market. I drove circles, diameter of which was ca. 25 m, at speed of about 20 MPH and the car swerved about 3-4 m to the side. The maximum swerve on Fuldas in such conditions was 1 m. Also, the fact is that the cars were different. Fuldas were on a Mondeo MkIV and Michelins are on a Citroen C5 MkIII. However, such tests speak for themselves.
