No, they have the same tread compound throughout. Last winter I drove my co-worker's Subaru that had the Alpins, and they were the worst winter tire I've ever experienced. They were, in fact, worse on ice than any all-season tire I've ever driven on. It was virtually frictionless. I just got new Blizzak Revo1s and am very impressed. The Michelin X-Ice has gotten good reviews, as have the Yokohama Ice Guard. I thought about Nokians, but they are a lot more expensive and I've had a couple of people (who have them) that they are good, but nothing special (and not as good as Blizzaks on ice).
