Pirelli CINTURATO P7

Overall the tyre is not bad but not suitable for certain cars. Strengths: - relatively low rolling resistance - very good dry grip and good control in case of loss of grip - Good steering precision - decent longevity - good control in case of loss of grip in the wet - fairly easy balancing and no "run-out" of the tyre - decent resistance to aquaplaning - The biggest advantage of the tyres is the control of the car after losing grip in dry and wet (additionally it is easy to sense when a skid occurs) AND the grip on dry pavement. Drawbacks: - quite significant noise from the start - they make a distinct noise and this is due to the high hardness of the tread - the biggest disadvantage is that the tyre increases the car floating on ruts, also tested on a BMW E92. Compared to other tyres, the car simply starts pulling hard to the right and left on ruts. - Wet grip, first season ok, next season worse, always has a TC reaction when starting in the wet. - Unevenness damping is ok, but noticeably worse than on the softer Goodyears. - Due to the shape of the tread, the tyres increase the resistance to steering when manoeuvring and parking.

Great tyres. Up to now I have been using dębica or other cheaper tyres. But the Pirelli's are in a class of their own. Quiet (they satisfied even a very picky driver:D and winter tires he bought Pirelli, of course), the car balls up on idle and does not want to stop, good handling in dry and wet. In corners hold as it should - I give gas and nicely lead out without any attractions:D As for the new ones, they have a lot of tread - opinion of the same person who said that they are quiet:D As for the durability, I can not give an authoritative opinion, (in my opinion, after this distance, you can not see the wear:D) because I have done only 4 thousand on them and now I drive on winter tires, but in the spring I will measure the depth of the tread and we'll see how much will be left when replacing them in the autumn. I bought them thinking that they can handle about 40 thousand km and so far everything is going in the right direction. The purchase was made at an attractive price without postage costs:D I sincerely recommend both P7 and Oponeo. Read more Collapse

By purchasing this tire whose quality is nested in the premium class expecting luxury by large L. Maybe I'm not disappointed, but probably surprised because I was expecting a bit better presentation. On a dry road it performs superbly well-kept asphalt and not too much noise in wet conditions one can not complain too much, even when driving through a puddle at high speed sticks to the track. Tires are fairly quiet. However, I was surprised that I could not drive completely across the wet grass on a slight hill. Although moderately operated on gas I slipped as to the former bald. In addition, after the first season of use on one of the tires on the side of the balloon appeared, and tread also has significantly erasure. So I do not think it was worth it to overpay because it is a premium tire with a little different from the tires middle-class or even budget class. Read more Collapse

I have them on Fiat Stilo. Best I’ve ever had. Good on wet and dry road. I drove 60k miles, but most of it, 45k miles was made in summer. No deformations, no vibrations on steering wheel. With good Ferodo DSP brakes you can show where middle class tyres are placed. No extra warming, good grip. No wearing on sidewalls. Highly recommend. For me, the only bad the tyre has is that the size 205/55R16 doesn’t have rim protector. Tyres have 4mm of tread pattern and deep pool causes aquaplaning at 60mph. But ESP/ASR turns in and everything goes smoothly then. This is my home car, the other is Subaru. I have lvl3 race driving diploma and I see those tyres absolutely perfect. Moderate driving style, like Colin McRae said: “Straight roads are for fast cars and curves for fast drivers.” Curves are very easy due to driver’s skills, great auto balance and nice suspension.

I looked at myself one day on the condom, because my old ones were already got outrageously ... Well, I was thinking: ładniutkie such even price quite pretty, decent performance. Customer Testimonial good, one not hang dogs that creak, groan or break up the road from the house to the Ladybugs. Pirelli, a company of the highest quality, it seems pretty calendars. What more could you want here? So I ordered ... And let me tell you that I'm really happy. And my old skodzina mean, it can not exit enthusiasm. For dry or wet showcase glides quietly, holds the road well, turns me not terrible. Once on the road I had an emergency situation that I had to catch the gravel shoulder at high speed and then completely odwdzięczyły eraser for purchase and take them with gray warehouse. With a clear conscience I can recommend not only for Skoda:-) Read more Collapse

The tyre in the size 205/55R16 looks cool and is quiet, but I have a feeling that it is quite hard. When it comes to handling, the tyre has very good grip in corners, bends, etc. - applies to wet and dry surface. It is worse when starting, when you want to leave the intersection quickly, but not suddenly, they lose traction. i can't say much about braking because I prefer a calm driving style, and didn't have any situations when I had to emergency brake. I didn't collide with anyone's rear, so I guess it's fine. It's hard for a regular driver to write about rolling resistance, I have no idea how to check it - the tyre just rolls on. When it comes to abrasion, I rate it very well, after driving 60 000 miles I don't see a significant loss of tread. To sum up, the Pirelli p7 Cinturatos are very good tyres worth recommending. Read more Collapse

They handle perfectly on both dry and wet roads. The car virtually lurks to move forward, glued to the dry road. On wet roads, thanks to their rather specific tread design, they shed water very nicely. I never experienced the impression of having a "water bed" under the car. Great cornering grip even at higher speeds. Not really a fan of the look of these tyres, the sidewall looks quite "balloon-like". At higher speeds they are unfortunately noisy. However, it is not very annoying. There is an indentation on the side of the tyre that wears away quite quickly and suggests wear, but the tread is in perfect condition. A little marketing trick to get you thinking about changing your tyres. In fact, it is pointed out by everyone who uses these tyres. All in all, a really recommendable tyre at an affordable price.

The Pirelli P7 Cinturato has some advantages and some disadvantages. It's certainly not suitable for more powerful and heavier vehicles. The BMW X3 35i is definitely not doing well even with a 4-wheel drive. Braking is terrible. After changing the tyres to winter Dunlops the cars started to brake normally. Grip in corners is normal, I rated shock absorbing as "below average" because these are Run Flats. The tyre is extremely durable. After 16000 miles of dynamic driving it still looks very good and I'm sure it will smoothly do twice as much. It is also relatively quiet. Unfortunately, I have a prejudice to ECO-labeled tyres. I recommend these tyres for less dynamic drivers and for lighter cars with less power, for powerful and heavy cars they are NOT recommended. Read more Collapse

Hi tere, I have Continental P7 Cinturato way too short to write any more than previous users, but it is silent and comfortable. I could ride it in rain and on dry without any issues. Previously I had Pirelli P7 which was a very good tyre: resistant to wear and damages. Good steering, no matter it is dry or wet, but a little bit noisier than Pirelli P7 Cinturato but it is not as important at all. I have done 20000 miles on the front tyres and 30000 miles on the rear and in different road conditions in various European countries. I sure hope that Pirelli P7 Cinturato will be still that good or even better. By now I was riding Pirelli P7 and this is why I’ve chosen this brand again. Greetings to all buyers! Read more Collapse

I fitted Pirelli P7 Cinturato tyres in the size 205/55R16 to an Audi 80 B4 2.0 115HP. I drive a lot on motorways and I was intent on buying a tyre of a well-known brand, which behaves well on wet, because on dry a majority of new tyres is good. With a clear conscience I can recommend Pirelli P7 Cinturato. So far they haven't lost their grip neither on dry nor on wet. I only see the difference in handling fast bends (motorway exit), as previously i used a low profile tyre and profile 55 is much softer / higher and does not provide such traction in the bend as low-profile tyres. However, I recommend strongly for overall specs. I can add that I was able to buy a set of 2012 tyres for 200 pounds. Read more Collapse

I did about 8 thousand miles on these tyres (the car is a BMW 3 Series, Run Flat tyres). Due to the fact that I chose Run Flats, the tyres are intentionally harder and louder than the "standard" version, but still quiet enough so the noise does not bother anyone. A very big advantage is theie low abrasion. After these 8 thousand miles there's no sign of tread wear (and I also had a bit of fun on these tyres). Correct behaviour on wet, but you have to be careful with the rear wheel drive and ESP switched off. Very good grip when starting on wet and dry, it's hard to get the wheels spinning for too long. Overall, Pirelli P7 Cinturatos are tyres I can definitely recommend. Read more Collapse

Unfortunately, one of the tyres that was fitted to my car has a defect. It is noticeably louder. The faster I drive the louder the noise gets. It sounds like it is "beeping". This is not a result of bad balance, as it has been checked 2 times and shifted from front to rear. After driving for an hour at 90-120 km/h the noise remains in the ears. This is probably due to a manufacturing defect. In my opinion, a premium tyre manufacturer should not make such a mistake, which is why I give the tyre an average rating. With higher torque on wet roads, the car loses grip when accelerating. The tyre is not prone to excessive abrasion so I give extra points here Read more Collapse

Pirelli P7 Cinturato is a very good tyre. This is some kind of rubbish to say they are Bad. I drove on Pirelli P7 Cinturato 13000 miles and it is very durable and silent. Good on dry and wet. Terrible on Snow!! Attention! You can’t miss the change of the summer tyres to winter for you might be disappointed. Pirelli P7 Cinturato has one fault: resilience. I had Michelins Primacy previously and those were much more comfortable. In general: Pirelli P7 Cinturato is a very good tyre and I doubt that ADAC neutral when giving notes to it on wet. Pirelli P7 Cinturato’s great advantage is its durability. I do 40000 miles on them and this result is very good. Read more Collapse

I have already driven several sets of different Pirelli tyres. From the P3000 to the P7 Cinturato. Probably using Pirelli is a matter of getting used to the brand. I had reservations about the last set I used, because after about 20,000 km I was "catching slippers" very easily. I bought a new set. When putting the tyres on, they were weighed and I experienced a shock: in order to balance them, I had to put on approx. 70g. weights. This has never happened before (15-20g was sufficient). I don't know why tyres up to 240 km/h require so much lead. I think these are the last Pirelli in my career. As for the tyre itself - I recommend it in the wet. Read more Collapse

I value this tyre for its excellent wet traction. I have also used Uniroyal RainExpert tyres and I must say that the P7 is at least as good or better in the wet. You have to move hard in the rain for the ESP to work slightly. On another (much weaker) car I had Michelin Energy Saver and in the wet it was a tragedy, I could barely move from lights in the rain. The P7 tyres are of course also excellent on a dry road. They could be a bit quieter, but they're still pretty good and the noise doesn't bother me (they're marked 71dB, and you can buy 69dB tyres). Read more Collapse

I have already driven 2 seasons on the tyres, they perform very well on dry pavement. Most of the time the tyres are used for city driving, so there is not much opportunity to test them. However, I have noticed an improvement in braking at high speed on dry pavement. In wet conditions the ride is good, the tyre disperses water quite well. Last year I changed the tyres quite late, so I drove in snow at low values for a while. Here too it was ok, with a little snow it was possible to drive without problems. Very good tyre for the price. Read more Collapse

I have no idea why Pirelli, got BMW approval.... I’ve said ‘Bye!’ to Run Flats due to a very hard suspension. I am unpleasantly surprised after changing winter to summer tyres. Pirelli P7 Cinturato is very loud and noisy while speeding – like driving a van. Looks like a balloon: sidewalls are round. As for the tracking capabilities – everything is ok apart from the noise while approaching a band. Very good on wet ground, soft in general, comfortable on bumpy road and very noisy when braking. Not recommended! Read more Collapse

I bought these tyres last year, in 2011 and I'm very satisfied. in the bends the car drives like it was "glued", there's no problem with sudden braking, does not lose the grip, which took place on the tyres I had before (Barum, Michelin, Bridgestone). En route I do about 700-850 miles on one tank (in comparison, on Barums I did 630-650 miles). As for a reinforced tyre, bump absorbing is very good, as well as the water drainage. The only drawback is worse behaviour in temperatures from 0 to 5 degrees. Read more Collapse

I fitted these tyres in the spring last year. Actually, it was my boss who did it - because it was his car. I work as a salesman - and I drive a lot, I did 32 000 miles on these tyres in the summer. There's ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to complain about. Good results on wet surface are confirmed during everyday driving, and the tyres are quiet. I think I'll do one more season on these tyres without any problems (although I would prefer to sell them as used in good condition and now get new ones ;). Read more Collapse

If you plan to change your tyres after three seasons for new ones, I recommend it. My tyres cracked in the tread grooves after 35k. The tyres are noisy, I compare them with yokohama winter tyres in driwe - I can't hear the difference. When it comes to grip on dry and wet surfaces it is VERY GOOD. these are the only pluses of these tyres. I'd also add that they look tragic on the wheel, the kind of potato chips you get on a big Fiat. Durability is the worst disadvantage of these tyres. Read more Collapse

Pirelli P7 Cinturato behaves really well in all the summer weather, very good lateral support when cornering even on dry roads. On wet straight riding even at high speed is not an issue and the car behaves really safe. When it comes to cornering on a big corner I turned on the stabilization of the track but it could also be a low pressure in the tire. I do not have the opportunity to test again but I strongly recommend this tire for the safety and quality are a priority Read more Collapse

In fact, I've already driven a season on these tyres, so now I'm ready to make a summary. Basically, as soon as I put them on you could feel that there was something better on the wheels;) Both in terms of ride comfort and handling on the road has improved significantly. At the moment, I have no reservations about them, maybe only that they could be even quieter (but I have too sensitive an ear and, for example, my husband does not share my opinion on this matter;) Read more Collapse

Previously I had Kleber Dynaxer HP3s and they seemed poor to me but after changing to Pirelli P7 Cinturatos I changed my mind. Pirellis are hard and very often twisted, it seemed to me that Klebers are loud but Pirellis are comparable. I put the tyres on the car and at 70 MPH the car began to fall into vibrations - sorry but I changed to them from old winter Barums, and there wass nothing like that there, and this is a premium class new tyre - and it's poor to me. Read more Collapse

I previously used Pirelli P7s, which were very good. I've done 80,000 on them, so I decided to get the newer P7 Cinturato model. They are brilliant tyres, they perform very well both in the dry and in the wet. The comfort of driving on them is even better than on the previous P7. It is difficult for me to assess the durability of these tyres, as they have covered several thousand kilometres so far. Generally speaking, I can honestly recommend them. Read more Collapse

I do not know where the opinions about the durability of this tyre come from - at my place, after 30 thousand km, the tyres of 245/45/17 size on the rear axle are no longer there - reached to the indicators. I do not drive like a madman, rather moderately, the fact that the car is heavy + rear-wheel drive, but to wear them so much? The front will easily last another 2 seasons - 3-4 mm to the indicators. Apart from that, a tyre like any other. Read more Collapse

The tyres meet my expectations. The quality is very good. They grip the road and, so far, have been trouble-free. After less than a year of use, there are no signs of wear. I bought the tyres at a good promotional price. I also wanted this year's tyres - upon delivery it turned out that according to the code on the tyre, the tyres were manufactured about 1 month before shipment. A positive surprise. I recommend the tyres and the seller. Read more Collapse

I did over 35 000 miles on Pirelli P7 Cinturatos, during which they surprised me many times with their grip in corners, which saved me during emergency braking a few times. It is quiet as one of only few and it didn't feather from fast driving. Low abrasion is an additional advantage. I would recommend Pirelli P7 Cinturato as a safe and comfortable tyre which allows have some fun with fast driving use maximum potential of the car. Read more Collapse

Overall, I am satisfied with purchased tyres. no matter if the surface was wet or dry, they behaved superbly. Their drawback is relatively short life span. I did about 35 000 miles since purchasing (maybe a bit more). Today (5th November) I changed my tyres to winter ones and my mechanics claimed that P7 Cinturatos are no use anymore. One axle had the tread at tread wear index level, the other two were slightly over the marker. Read more Collapse

I bought a set of 225/45R17 tyres in December, impatiently waiting for spring. From March until now I did about 3500 miles in the city, on the road as well as off-road. The car is a 115 HP Fiat Stilo 3D, and it handles like it was glued to the pavement. The tyres are quiet, they don't hum while driving. I hit a hole in the road several times when using these tyres, fortunately without consequences - they are still intact. :-) Read more Collapse

I had plenty of different tyres, but those seems to bahave very well. Had them for over 5000miles and still looks decent thread. Had toyo sport in the front and these in the back. Toyo only lasted a year, those already last for more than a year and there is a lot of life left in them. Had pirelli cinturato p7 on the back for already 30000-40000miles and they look very decent as well. Probably same thread as in the front Read more Collapse

The tyre material is flexible, but the tyres meet expectations and do not show excessive wear. good price and high rating. In comparison to michelin tyres, don't be fooled by the name and the high price, it is the users opinion that counts and that is decisive. I have driven on these tyres for 200 km.h and I can assure you that the car runs very well and has super grip, other elements can be assessed as positive. Read more Collapse

Pirelli P7 Cinturato is a very good tyre is its class: excellent shock absorption, the behavior in the corners, on dry and wet surface, very quiet and the tread doesn't vanish rapidly. Superb driving comfort. Assuming it can be bought at a dcent price, I don't see a better tyre, for comparable Goodyears or harder Michelins I'd have to pay 50% more. i think Pirelli P7 Cinturatos are really worth recommending. Read more Collapse

Generally, the Pirelli P7 Cinturato it is a poor choice if comparing its quality to its price. Behaves well when driving on different surfaces, but it is very sensitive to the pressure inside the tyre. As soon as the pressure drops slightly, the wheel starts to swerve and press on the tyre's sidewall, causing rapid damage. The tyre's probably suitable for smooth roads without holes. Not for our roads. Read more Collapse

The tyre is a revelation to me because in the wet the car doesn't even have any slippage (rear-wheel drive) and it handles really well on the same bends as other tyres. the cinturato p7 handles incredibly well. In the dry it is just as sensational. I am not writing this because I have such tyres, I am just writing what I think about it. I recommend it and 90% of my next summer tyre will be the same. Read more Collapse

I drive a lot of cars and I am always interested in what tyres I am always interested in what kind of tyres my cars have. The good handling and grip made me buy these tyres for my private car. I had previously been using the P6, which I was satisfied with, with very little wear and good characteristics, but after 5 years of use and over 60,000 miles, I decided to change to the newer generation. Read more Collapse

he most durable tyres I have ever had, and I have tried many such as Continental, Goodyear and Michellin. The Pirelli P7s proved to be the most durable with my riding style. The only tyres I was able to keep for a second season, as mostly all the tyres had no tread left after one season, especially the Continetal, which I was able to change twice a season with new tyres. Read more Collapse

12,000 kilometres. So far I have no complaints. The tyre performs very well on dry and wet pavement, it is not afraid to drive in a large puddle, etc. Even on wet pavement and in ruts it is difficult to lose grip when moving off. The only drawback is that it is quite noisy, but this is also a characteristic of other tyres from this manufacturer (e.g. P Zero Nero).). Read more Collapse

Considering the price/quality ratio, it is the best choice among the premium winter tyres offered on Oponeo. Fuel consumption remains at the same level as for summer tyres. Despite the harder rolling conditions (slush, etc.). The car is garaged almost all the time, so cold starting of the engine and the associated higher fuel consumption in winter is eliminated. Read more Collapse

I have been using the tyres for a year and have already replaced two of them because of bulges. On one occasion I drove the front wheel onto a curb which was not very high and which had a slight curve in it, and on another occasion I drove the rear wheel into a pothole. Each time a bulge appeared on the outside of the wheel and the tyre ended up in the bin. Read more Collapse

Previously, I used Bridgestone Potenzas and Turanzas - they're also great, but not as durable as Pirelli P7 Cinturatos, as I have worn them off faster. The P7 Cinturato grips the road very well, even at high speed you have full control of the car, especially on winding roads, and they are much quieter than Bridgestones I used before. Read more Collapse

Pirelli P7 Cinturatos are outstanding medium class tyres. Very stable when driving, great on wet. Behaves sensationally when driving fast on the motorway. In fact, the only drawback is its rapid abrasion. The tyres have 30 thousand mileage. and look like they did about 45 thousand miles, although I don't drive aggressively. Read more Collapse

I have these tyres only a few weeks, but I used a lot of summer tyres like Dunlop, Continental, Fulda, and the Pirelli P7 Cinturatos are really amazing as summer tyres. They are the best in ADAC tests, this is also a good mark for them! They are very quiet, I can't assess their abrasion and behaviour in the winter yet. Read more Collapse

I've been choosing the tyres for my van for a long time and for my driving style the P7 Cinturatos are great. Of course, because of the high clearance I don't take corners in such a way I did in my previous estate, so I don't know if the fans of dynamic driving will be as pleased as I am, but for me they are good. Read more Collapse

I don't like riding Pirelli P7 Cinturato. I have a constant feeling not having control over my own car which was about to slide... I can't tell the difference between wet and dry road. I will not buy them any more. I prefer Debica.. I feel more comfortable on a budget winter tyre than on a summer premium class. Read more Collapse

As mentioned above: first season with Pirelli P7 Cinturato was ok. Second slightly worse: noise is begining to be anoying especially while braking, tyres are getting harder and comfort faling down. 3rd season turned up to be dramatic, so I'm searching new tyres. Summer season was about 10000miles... Read more Collapse

Pirelli P7 Cinturato is a very good 205/55R16 tyre. I could'v chosen Extra Loaded ( XL ) as I am riding a car transporter and it slides a bit on sides. When empty, very good, silent and good grip even with a car on it. I have a 2.0TDi and 340Nm and after 15000 miles you can't see any signs of wear. Read more Collapse

Very loud tyres, they feather from the inside, the noise in the car is like the one of bearing failure, they should be changed every 2000 miles, what I learned in the service - and the manufacturer doesn't inform about it. Generally speaking, buying Pirelli P7 Cinturatos is a total failure. Read more Collapse

Pirelli P7 Cintourato is a very good tyre. I am very happy as well as many other ppl. There are too many tyres on the market at present - it is hard to decide. I had the same problem but there is nothing to regret. When talking about the price: it is way to low for such a fine tyre. Read more Collapse

The biggest surprise is that the tyres are considerably louder than the winter continentals. After 15,000 miles I'm thinking of replacing them as there is very little tread left. I drive a lot on highways, sometimes 160-200 so maybe that explains the wear. I advise against Read more Collapse

I had to replace one tyre after about 25,000 km because of a bubble on the side. I don't know if this was a manufacturing defect or a hole in the road. Apart from that, the tyres meet my expectations, although their durability compared to Michelin's is a bit less Read more Collapse
