Pirelli CINTURATO P7 245/50 R18 100 Y Run on flat (P7C1), *

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

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
