Expert summary
Michelin has unveiled the ALPIN 7 winter tyre, featuring an advanced tread design with additional sipes and an evolving tread pattern to maintain traction as the tyre wears. The new model aims to enhance braking and acceleration on snowy and wet roads while improving overall efficiency for a variety of vehicles. Unlike the Alpin 6, which was considered a bit overpriced for its performance, the Alpin 7 is expected to offer better value and address concerns in upcoming winter tests.

Expert summary
We really like the new Speed-Grip 5 - it's not expensive, it's very good on snow and on top of that, it's got very low rolling resistance. What it lacks compared to the premium tyres is better wet performance, but given it's price it's definitely recommendable.

205/55 R19 — Also available in

Did you know ...?

205/55 R19 doesn't belong to the most popular dimensions for winter tyres - there are tyre models available, which can be compared to 325/30 R21, 155/60 R15, 155/65 R13. Let's break down the sizing - 55 is height of the tyre, which is calculated as 55% of the tyre width (205mm), which means the sidewall height has 112.75 mm. The wheel diameter is R19, which means it fits to a 19 inch/482.6mm diameter wheel. The total circumference of the tyre is mm, which is very similar to 175/70 R13(1807.04 mm), 255/35 R20(2156.7 mm), 185/55 R14(1756.46 mm), 255/45 R19(2237.13 mm), 185/70 R14(1930.82 mm), 255/60 R18(2397.66 mm), 195/45 R16(1828.09 mm).
