Michelin tyres for cars, SUVs and vans
Michelin is one of the world's oldest tyre makers: brothers André and Édouard Michelin founded the company in 1889 in Clermont-Ferrand, France, where the group is still headquartered. Tyres for the European market are made in Michelin plants in France, Spain, Germany, Italy and Poland.
Nordkit's Michelin range covers the Pilot Sport and Primacy summer lines, the Alpin and Pilot Alpin winter tyres for Central European winters, X-Ice Snow and the studded X-Ice North 4 for Nordic winters, and the CrossClimate all-season tyre with the 3PMSF snowflake mark. Vans get the Agilis line.
Every tyre shows the manufacturer's EU label — fuel efficiency, wet grip and pass-by noise — and its production year. Every tyre shows today's stock and exact delivery time, so the set in the list is really available.
Which Michelin tyre to choose
Pilot Sport 4, 4 S and 5
Summer tyres for sporty and powerful cars. Asymmetric pattern and high speed rating — when handling and braking on dry and wet asphalt matter most. Pilot Sport 4 SUV is the SUV version.
Primacy 4+, Primacy 5 and e-Primacy
Everyday summer tyres. Primacy emphasises wet grip throughout its life; e-Primacy is the low-rolling-resistance variant Michelin also recommends for EVs and hybrids.
CrossClimate 3
All-season tyre with the 3PMSF mark that meets Estonia's winter tyre requirement. A sensible choice for a city car that mostly drives on maintained roads in winter.
Alpin 7 and Pilot Alpin 5
Studless winter tyres for Central European-type winters — wet and slushy roads, temperatures around zero. Pilot Alpin 5 is for more powerful cars and SUVs (SUV version).
X-Ice Snow and X-Ice Snow+
Studless winter tyre for Nordic winters: ice, packed snow and long cold spells. Michelin's most common winter choice in Estonian conditions.
X-Ice North 4
Studded tyre for cars and SUVs. When winter brings a lot of ice and studs are allowed, this is Michelin's surest grip.
Frequently asked questions
Which Michelin winter tyre suits an Estonian winter?
For ice and snow, X-Ice Snow (friction) or X-Ice North 4 (studded). If you mostly drive on maintained roads, Alpin 7 or CrossClimate 3 also work — both carry the 3PMSF mark.
Where are Michelin tyres made?
Michelin has plants in Europe (France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Poland), North America and Asia. The country of manufacture is moulded on the sidewall.
Does CrossClimate meet the Estonian winter tyre requirement?
Yes, CrossClimate carries the 3PMSF snowflake mark, which is the winter tyre criterion in Estonia.
What do the EU label letters mean?
A is the best and E the weakest class for fuel efficiency and wet grip; noise is in decibels. The figures are declared by the manufacturer and comparable across brands.
