Ranked #3 of 11
3rd of 11, rated "Exemplary" — the Michelin Alpin 7 proved an extremely well‑balanced tyre: it was the rolling‑resistance champion, delivered very low exterior noise, showed excellent dry handling and the shortest braking distances on snow; it does, however, begin to aquaplane in cornering slightly earlier than some rivals and is priced similarly to the Conti.
