Tire Description

The Latitude Alpin HP is Michelin's Performance Winter tire developed for the drivers of high performance pickups and luxury sport utility vehicles who want to enhance their winter driving experience. Latitude Alpin HP tires were designed to combine responsive handling on dry, wet and slippery winter roads. The Latitude Alpin HP features a tread rubber compound that remains flexible at lower temperatures for greater grip and better handling in cold temperatures, as well as in snow and on ice. This compound is molded into a subtle, directional tread design that features rounded shoulders to provide predictable handling while maintaining good traction on dry, wet and slush-covered roads. Circumferential bridges between the independent tread blocks further enhance dry road handling while lateral grooves and high density sipes increase braking and control on slippery roads. The tire's structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by Michelin's spirally wrapped nylon Banded At Zero (BAZ) to optimize high-speed handling and durability. Latitude Alpin HP winter tires meet the industry’s severe snow service requirements and are branded with the snowflake-on-the-mountain symbol. Install Latitude Alpin HP tires in sets of four only. Vehicles should always be equipped with equivalent tires at all wheel positions. These winter tires, due to their exceptional snow and ice traction provided by their unique tread compounds, must be used in sets of four to help ensure proper vehicle control.

Customer Reviews

First of all, with these tires, my Liberty turned into a smooth, silent ride compared to OEM Wrangler S4s. Most of the first 2000 miles were on dry or wet road conditions where Michelines performed much better than most summer or all weather tyres I know. In addition,last week,an early snow storm gave me the chance to test them on almost every snow conditions during two days and nights on various paths including icy steep hills-up and down,and I was simply fascinated by the stability and traction. So,my overall comment so far: Although this is not an ice&snow tyre,it performs fabulous both on dry,wet,ice&snow and off the road together with the Jeeps selec-trac 4wd system,and strongly recommend it to especially Liberty owners because,despite all, it reduces road noise not less than 30%.
