MICHELIN Pilot Alpin 5 SUV 305/35 R21 109V winter Отзыв

The Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 SUV is a winter tire with a non-studded tread designed for urban SUV owners. They are characterized by precise control and predictable behavior on wet cold asphalt, excellent traction and effective braking on snow, as well as driving comfort and the ability to optimize vehicle fuel consumption. New for 2018. Winter tire Michelin Pilot Alpin PA5 SUV is designed for SUVs and crossovers. It is a modernized version of the model of the same name for passenger cars, which differs in the frame design. It has been adapted to accommodate the increased weight of four-wheel drive vehicles. It was developed taking into account the weather conditions of the so-called "European" winters. It is characterized by stability on snowy pavement, high speed stability on dry pavement, excellent deceleration performance, as well as fuel efficiency and long service life. Directional tread pattern. The running part of the tread is made in the classic V-shaped design for winter tires. Its key feature is the small size of the blocks and their combination into groups of 4 elements each. As a result, very long edges are formed, with which the tire effectively clings to slippery surfaces. It is worth noting the aggressive angle of inclination of these elements, which improves lateral grip. Negative tread profile. In lateral projection and without load, the tread profile is made concave. This feature allows you to significantly increase the width of the zone in contact with the road. Its shape is close to square, which improves not only grip, but also its stability. This solution largely optimizes the distribution of the external load over the contact zone, which ensures uniform wear of the running part of the tread, thereby increasing its service life. Updated slats. All tread blocks have several narrow slots. When in contact with the road surface, they open up and form sharp edges. Several thousand of these elements help the tire to effectively cling to the smallest bumps. The Z-shape of the lamellas, by limiting the lateral mobility of the blocks, provides stability of grip properties and faster and more accurate transmission of lateral acceleration forces to the steering wheel. This greatly facilitates the process of driving in difficult conditions. Special rubber compound. The tire tread is made of a compound, the characteristics of which have been specially selected taking into account road conditions in winter. One of them is the operating temperature range of the rubber compound, shifted closer to 0 degrees Celsius. The composition of the compound includes the so-called fine silica and functional polymers that affect the mixture at the molecular level. This made it possible to further increase the elasticity ...
