Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 NA0
EU tyre label for every size: 2 sizes of this winter tyre compared with the rest of the market
The Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 NA0 is a winter tyre for passenger cars. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 2 sizes (2 registrations including load and speed variants), for 20″ to 21″ rims.
Wet grip is rated C–D depending on size, fuel efficiency C–D and external rolling noise 69–72 dB. Every size carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF), the mark for tyres tested in severe snow.
The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale is 245/35 R20 (Wet grip C · Fuel efficiency D · 72 dB), the weakest 295/30 R21 (Wet grip D · Fuel efficiency C · 69 dB).
On the EU market since June 2018; the earliest production week registered is 26/2017.

Estimates from the class ranges in Regulation (EU) 2020/740. A label class is a range, so a real tyre can sit anywhere inside it. Every 3 dB doubles the sound energy.
All 2 sizes
The small figure under each class is the share of same-size, same-season tyres this size matches or beats (“–” when fewer than five tyres share the size).
