Michelin PILOT ALPIN PA3 - User reviews

4.3
Michelin Pilot Alpin PA3 is excellent when it comes to behaviour at high speed on the motorway. I often go abroad and the tyre drains water really well and behaves nicely on slush. If I have to find a drawback I have to say I live in the mountains and I never had any problems with grip, but sometimes when you go through mountain routes, the tyre is not enough. For residents of the mountain areas it's not recommended to buy them if the roads are bumpy and always covered in snow. For such conditions you can only get a good tyre with a decent tread. However, I would recommend it to drivers who cover large distances, as it behaves correctly and has low abrasion.

Michelin Pilot Alpin PA3 are sensational tyres, the car grips the road likt it was glued. They have definitely passed a sudden winter attack test. It's worth to pay extra for the XL version - you do not see any signs of wear.

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

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.

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
