Pirelli CINTURATO P7 Reviews - Page 4

Given 76% while driving a BMW F10 520d SE (225/45 R17 W) on mostly motorways for 25,000 spirited miles
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.

Given 77% while driving a Volkswagen Golf Mk6 (225/40 R18) on mostly motorways for 3,000 average miles
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.

Given 86% while driving a (225/60 R16 H) on a combination of roads for 8,000 spirited miles
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.

Given 69% while driving a Audi A3 2.0 TDI 140 (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 10,000 miles
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 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.

Given 80% while driving a Toyota Altis (205/55 R16 W) on a combination of roads for 6,820 average miles
My car originally came with Falken tires which were fairly worn and noisy. When they wore out, I have decided to change to a new set of P7 tires. Grip is great on both dry and wet roads, handling has also improved. Certainly provides confidence on the roads. So far, have clocked only about 11,000km so still early to comment on the wear rate. So far, I have done a combination of highway and trunk roads driving. Overall very pleased with the tires. I would say that these are not very quiet tires but for the above average grip and drive, I have no qualms about it. Will definitelty consider buying P7 again when they are worn out.

Given 88% while driving a Honda BRV (225/45 R17) on mostly town for 5,000 spirited miles
There are alot of crappy roads and speed bumps in my city, so I wanted good Tire comfort and these gave me somewhat of comfort. My other option was blueearth. I'm pretty sure that the pirellis grip much better, in both dry and wet. They're not that loud as some may say. Very normal. Louder than the hushed yokohamas though. Handling is superb. Braking is good but not excellent sometimes, might be due to bad roads.

Fitted as OE on my 2013 X3. Still have 5mm left on the 2nd set after 90k miles. Not great in the snow but I live on the south coast so not a problem for the one occasion in 7 years that I needed it!

Given 73% while driving a Volkswagen Golf MK6 1.6 tdi (225/45 R17 V) on a combination of roads for 30,000 average miles
These tires have lasted me 30,000 miles at the front, on mixture of country lanes, motorways (mostly) and in the city. They do wear quite quickly compared to some tires, however they are very quiet and comfortable to drive on with good grip both in dry and wet conditions.

Given 77% while driving a Mercedes Benz E Class (245/45 R17) on mostly motorways for 20 spirited miles
Extreme grip in dry and fantastic grip in wet. Emergency braking in dry and wet is almost similar. Road noise is on the high side with this set.
