The Latitude Alpin is Michelin's winter tire for crossovers and SUVs, made for cold, wet, snowy and icy roads. A Helio compound with a directional tread, self-locking sipes and variable-geometry Stabiligrip sipes bite into snow and ice, while Comfort Control Technology reduces vibration and road noise. Steel belts and a polyester casing support the tread.
The 255/55R18 size is rated 109V for load and speed with extra load (XL) construction. It offers 11/32-inch tread depth, a 50 psi maximum inflation pressure and an overall diameter of about 29 inches.
