Pirelli CINTURATO P7 235/40 R18 95 W (P7C1), Seal Inside

They have a rim guard which is pretty useless. Not as grippy as Michelin Pilot 4s. Read more Collapse

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.
