295/40R20 Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 SUV – 3PMS Directional EV Compatible M+S Performance Touring Winter
Category: Truck/SUV Winter – Performance
The Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 SUV is a light truck and SUV performance winter tire developed to meet the needs of enthusiast drivers who don't want wintry conditions to prevent them from enjoying their vehicles year-round. It has a directional tread pattern that features a wide central groove to blend stability with hydroplaning resistance and traction in winter conditions. The Pilot Alpin 5 SUV has a reduced rolling resistance to aid in fuel economy and reinforced polyester casing for added durability while being branded with the three-peak mountain snowflake symbol for certified winter traction. It also has a 30,000 mile tread life warranty for all sizes.
Carries the 3PMSF symbol — tested and rated for severe snow service.
What these tire specs mean
- Load index 106 means each tire can carry up to 950 kg. Check your door jamb placard — the tire needs to meet or beat the load rating your manufacturer specifies.
- Speed rating V is the maximum sustained speed this tire is designed to handle under proper conditions. That works out to 240 km/h under correct load and inflation — not a target, just the rated ceiling.
- Winter tires use a softer compound that stays pliable in cold temperatures, where all-season rubber starts to harden. They carry the 3PMS symbol and meet Quebec’s winter tire mandate.
- EV Compatible means the tire is designed with electric vehicle demands in mind — higher load capacity for battery weight, reinforced sidewalls for EV torque, and compound choices that balance rolling resistance and road noise.
- 3PMS stands for Three Peak Mountain Snowflake — a symbol earned by meeting specific severe snow traction standards in testing. It is the mark Quebec requires for winter tire compliance.
- Vehicle type indicates the service category this tire is built for — passenger car, light truck, commercial, or other. Matching the right category matters for load capacity, handling, and safety.
- Warranty coverage is backed by the manufacturer and applies under normal use — regular rotations, correct inflation, and proper alignment. Keep maintenance records if you ever need to make a claim.
