The Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 245/35R20 is a performance winter tire designed for sports car, sedan, and coupe drivers who prioritize secure handling and traction during freezing temperatures, snow, and ice conditions. Its tread design and compound focus on maintaining flexibility in cold weather while delivering reliable acceleration, braking, and cornering performance. The tire features a full silica-based, sunflower oil-enriched Helio Compound+ tread rubber that stays pliable in low temperatures, molded into an asymmetric tread pattern with heavy grooving and Michelin's high-density Stabiligrip 3D sipe technology.
