Pirelli CINTURATO P7 Reviews - Page 7

Purchased a 2019 Mini Cooper John Cooper Works for my wife which cane with these tires. I thought they would have been great tires based om the brand, however I was so wrong, my wife doesn't even want to drive the car anymore with those tires. Our main complaint about the tires are the road noise, very harsh ride, sidewalls are weak and poor feedback. After 2 weeks (less than 800km) of owning the car, we damaged 3 of the 4 tires, 2 potholes caused the tires to burst (sidewalls had big holes in them where the rubber was just flapping) while travelling less than 40 km/h, the other tire was lost from a sink in the road were the sidewall rubber tore away.
I will never buy these tires again, we are from Jamaica and these tires can not hold up to our conditions, looking to purchase Hankook Ventus evo2 instead, the run flat nature ruins the ride of the car. I don't understand how a high performance car can come with touring tires which are so inadequate, these tires ruined the experience of the Mini Cooper JCW.

Front tires are worn on my 2017 BMW X3 after 15000miles of easy driving rears have about 3.5mm left so I will be replacing all after the winter season (switching to sottozeros for winter). I am appalled at how poor these summer tires have lasted and I will be looking at switching to something like Goodyear or Bridgestone which were great on my 5 series cars.

These came with my brand new Audi A4, so conditions for the tires couldn't be much better. They're a good tire, it just feels like they wear down too quick. The grip has been great although as you'd expect the car has slid about a bit more recently as the tires have worn down.

If they lasted longer I would probably buy again. I'm not a gentle driver, but I have driven this car like my previous two and the tires (different makes) didn't wear down this quick.

In the ten months I've been using these tires they've been great, handling corners better than other tires I've previously used. They're good in the wet. The tires have looked after me in their short life.

This set of boots on my car is great. However it does miss that 'je ne sais quoi' effect. I think it lacks that sportiness look like the S001 has. The response from the front wheels aren't very good; i think this is because of 205/50R17 and would prefer a wider tire and stiffer walls, again this draws me back to the S001. In wet conditions, it clears the water quick and car remains stable, no aquaplaning noted. Overall, I rate this tire highly but I would like to try the S001 next. So if any of you have those on, could do with some feedback....

I would just like to congratulate Pirelli for these RUN FLAT tires which I have had since the car was new and 28k miles later they still have 5mm of tread all round. My local Tire City was amazed after they measured the tread and said that in principle they would be good for another 20k miles!

Too soft for Sri Lankan roads. A tire punch will make the tire to tear away. Happened to 2 tires within few months. The customer care is pathetic in Sri Lanka. They don't care about a complaint. My advice is don't buy Pirelli in Sri Lanka.

This were OEM tires for my car, they have good wet and dry handling, but they feel more like a Touring tire rather than a high performance tire. 2 of the 4 tires blew because of a pot hole at just 70 kph, they wear real fast and they have real weak sidewalls. Good for everyday driving, but not for highway or spirited tire. If you want a good touring tire go for the Michelin Primacy 3, for spirited driving go for BF Goodrich Sport Comp 2 or Michelin PilotSuper Sport.

This is an end of life review in addition to previous. In short these Pirellis are grippy, smooth, controllable and wear very well. The recent snow is what prompted me to change (this time for Bridgestone Turanza T001 Evo) after 17000 miles on the front only with 2.5mm of tread remaining. It would have been better if I'd realised an auto centre had set the geometry correctly (for sports suspension).

I like the green credentials- light weight, less materials in construction yet a strong carcass means low unsprung weight so good ride quality yet they still grip. Braking, aquaplaning resistance and cornering are all commendable aspects for these hard wearing Cinturatos which come with 9mm of tread when new. Indeed, due to the unusually deep tread, I wish I'd fitted them to the less stressed rear wheels when new as that would pay huge dividends in tire life.

I'm trying marginally quieter tires this time which are still very lightweight but not so light that the carcass deforms and shoulder wear results (Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance). Look for tire weights on Amazon under product details as a guide. However, I have found I greatly like these Pirellis and I would heartily recommend them as a vice free touring tire. They are a refreshing change to the rather short lived, harsh and noisy tires Continental have offered for far too long now. The Pirellis also work very well for the enthusiastic driver and stand up to punishment well. The only negative aspect is slightly blunted steering response but otherwise they really are very good indeed and I say if you are considering them just give them a try. There is nothing to lose.

These came with my car, and right off, I knew I'd be replacing them. The grip isn't great, especially in the wet/cold, and the comfort level is poor (perhaps just due to the run-flat nature). They crash into every minor road imperfection and constantly seem to jiggle the car, the passengers, and most annoyingly, the driver. In addition, they don't look good. They're very rounded on the shoulders, so they appear to be narrower than other tires I've had of this size (245 r 19 in the front, 275 r 19 in the rear). It seems like they don't fill the wheel well properly or something. It's hard to describe, but I didn't feel this way with the last car (BMW 535 with the same size wheels front and back) that came with Bridgestones or Michelins, I don't remember. And perhaps this rounded shape reduces the size of the contact patch resulting in the reduced grip? But I'm very happy to report that the new Michelin PS 4S's get put on next Wednesday, and these will just be a disappointing memory.

just bought these tires for my bmw 520d f10 my car steering feels much lighter now and car feels very smooth and no noise at all, im a big fan good rubber and these tires feel very good grip, i do so much driving its part of my job so im very fussy when im buying new tires i checked reviews on goggle and i taught i try these tires im 100% impressed i only have them on one day and as a true driver i know these are amazing.

had them on my big turbo 2.0 quattro a4 previous owner bought them in march , since i bought the car and mounted the turbo these tires went off , they are bald, changed them in november and not even one season wear from a eco tire .
on my oyher car i have falken 510 which are better for comfort handling and road noise , even my winters on my audi (245 40 r18 h449 falken) are better . never going to buy pirelli , these tires turned me off the brand :(

Have had these tires on my Skoda Superb from new. At 34,500 miles in 18 months the fronts have finally reached the wear limiters. Perfectly matched to this car for grip and comfort. Today I have put the superseded blue on. If they get anywhere near these tires for wear and grip I will be very pleased. Thoroughly recommend theses tires for this type of car.
