Top 3 Michelin Pilot Alpin Reviews

Given 86% while driving a Subaru Outback (215/55 R17 V) on mostly country roads for 64 average miles
Subaru diesel Outback. Original Yokohama Geolanders worn out at 24,000 miles. ATS advised try the Pilot Alpin and they have been fabulous. I do 24,000 miles a year and a lot of off road forestry work. They now need replacing after 40,000 miles but I'm finding it hard to get a supplier. ATS tell me they are not in stock at Michelin.
I do not want to go back to Yokohama as although cheaper to fit they cost more over time.

Given 96% while driving a Volkswagen Golf GTI (205/55 R16 H) on mostly country roads for 30,000 spirited miles
michelin piliot alpin the best allseason tire on the market extremly long lasting considerin my style of driving realy even wear compared to other competetors on the market such as vredstein which wears heavily on the shoulders of the tire limiting ultimate milage.
michelin alpin has the technology of michelin a higher carbon content which makes the tire slightly harder but doubles the milage.. a must buy...

Given 71% while driving a Mazda 6 Wagon (235/55 R17 H) on a combination of roads for 5,000 average miles
Probably not the best winter tires on snow or ice out there... but they make up for it as they're amazing in the dry for a winter tire!! Recommended if you live in areas that dont get a lot of snow, but you want the priece of mind winter tires offer
