Pirelli CINTURATO P7 Reviews - Page 4

The Pirelli P7, are tires that do not excel at anything but work well and in almost all circumstances, which is ultimately what it is all about. The P7s are tires for long routes and for the day, and stand out for their comfort, although they are also somewhat noisy, the feedback from these tires is very good, and they do not increase consumption in a BMW 318d with 150 hp 5.8 liters of average fixed mean at one hundred. As a negative point, the feeling of driving in the wet is not good like other Michelin brands for example.

Cannot fault them for performance, but the tire roar is pretty intrusive and after only 4 years and 20k miles, the edge of the tread was already cracking very badly; at 30k I think they’ll fail the next MOT. I’ve noticed that I’m not alone in these respects so no, I won’t be replacing these with P7’s.

I have been using these tires since it came oem with the car. Its been almost 5 years / 62k km. Tires are still around 4 mm. Comfort level is quite good comparing to my previous car tires Hankook Ventus 2 and Bridgstone Turanza tires. I might change my set of tires as the tires would start to lose quality due to season changes in Istanbul. Roads are full of pit holes and bumps in Istanbul. But thankfully I did not have any blow problem. I would highly recommend these tires for compact HB cars.

Worn to limits within 25K km in very average driving.

Grip, both wet and dry are excellent, and road feedback is pretty good too. Wears pretty fast though. Got the run flats, and I understand that they're not supposed to be as comfortable as non-run flat tires, but the comfort on this is really not that great. They are pretty quiet, but road unevenness is really felt. Granted I do have a rather "sport" oriented vehicle.

Good overall tire, great dry grip and feedback. Improved handling over previous Bridgestone. But there is a dramatic drop in grip on wet asphalt. They drain the water very well, so there is no aquaplaning issue, but the grip itself is below par.

On a VW Golf 1.4 TSI, these provided good grip in both dry and wet conditions. I always felt confident when going around bends or through standing water. They are somewhat soft but still grippy enough for the occasional twisty road. Noise and comfort levels are good with this being more of a touring tire. I wouldn’t mind putting these on my car again but would probably consider slightly sportier alternatives from Conti, Goodyear or Dunlop.

Hello from Italy! Brand new to replace glorious but already worn ContiEcoContact. So far (after 10.000 km), satisfied. Touring tires but with some sporty character, as the old Contis no concern both with dry roads and in the rain, good resistance to aquaplaning, precise breaking with short stopping distance and low fuel consumption. Excellent road feedback and satisfactorily subjective handling with precise cornering, features somewhat superior as compared with the previous fitted Contis. Comfortable but not "mushy", however more noisy compared to the Contis. Relative expensive, I hope in both a reasonable wear and maintenance of the current positive features with time to repay the money spent.

I bought my 2014 Audi a3 2.0tdi with Pirelli P7 cinturato fitted. The front was 50% worn and the rear tires about 25%. The previous owner hadn't roared regularly. I therfore put the P7s with better tread up front on thr driving wheels. They are definitely a touring Tire, and have limited sporty ability, not that that's what I'm after. In smooth tarmac the P7s will spin or slip and the traction control will intervene But they are quiet at 120 to 130kph my cruising speeds. They are pretty decent in 2 to 5mm standing water. They communicate quite well with driver. Not as sporty as the Conti SC3 or SC5 but it's a touring tire. They have handled the occasional rough edged pot hole and they don't drone or whine at cruising speed. A good and recommended touring summer Tire. Getting a little old. But they atoll work and are recommended for for thr A3.

I changed from Dunlop Sport Max RT to this Pirelli's P7 cinturatto. My thoughts: Dry: good grip, traction and braking. The only drawback is that the sidewalls are soft, so.the cornering is not top notch. Wet: good overall performance. Noise: very quiet tires. Treadwear: so far so good..they are soft compound, still tje wear evenly. Bottomline: a good overall tire, just it is not a UHP tire, is a Summer Touring tire, for me.it is very similar to the Michelin Primacy3..very similar tire. If you want a good summer overall tire with good performance this tire is for you...but if you want a UHP tire you better try The Pirelli Sport Dragon or the Pitelli PZero Nero....

I own a tire sale shop and I decided to use this tires for my Hyundai I20 1.4 L I put them on my car 5 years after the production date First they a little bit hard but they got soft after 2 month Now my car is more comfortable than ever Braking in dry road is excellent Very good on wet and the handling is better than what you can ever imagine They have ran 20000 km and they have 80% If you drive your car fast and you need the best handling you need these are the best

I had these on my last car for the last four years. Great handling, feedback and braking in the wet and dry with the only downside being that they went a horrible brown colour. This does put me off buying again as they just looked dirty.
