Given 53% while driving a (245/45 R18) on for 0 miles
After 20K miles on a Kia K5 that my Daughter mostly drove these tires were done.
I mean barely any tread left. I would NEVER buy these tires.
Called customer service and they did not care so I will never buy a Perelli tire
and I will suggest to all to look for other brands. Happy Shopping.

I have had these on a few high performance cars when i bought them and i change them almost immediately. They are so noisy and give really poor ride quality. Rubbish grip when cold also. Terrible for the money.

Porsche Cayenne 3.6 (305/40 R20) on mostly motorways for 32,000 average miles
Had a major event today after one of these P Zeros burst its steel cables on a motorway and the tread separated. We escaped unharmed off the motorway but I’m not impressed and I’m going to take it up with Pirelli.

Given 41% while driving a Hyundai i20N (215/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 8 easy going miles
The tires came with a brand new car I purchased 8 months ago, an Hyundai i20n. I'm sorry but they're diabolical. When coming out of my drive way or junctions if the road is even slightly damp, the don't grip at all and slip. After doing just over 7 thousand miles the front ones wore down to illegal levels. The rear wasn't as bad, but was getting near being illegal. At that amount of miles these tires should never have worn down that much. I'm not the only one this has happened to. I don't drive like an idiot, I'm a careful lady driver with an advanced driving qualification. I have now changed them to Michelin PS5's which are a thousand times much better.

These tires have been great on my Hyundai I30N they have great feedback, did well on the odd track day, stop really well and pretty comfortable on the road, however in the wet I found them not as good and they have wore very quickly due to soft side wall. If they did not wear so fast I would probably buy them again.

Given 23% while driving a Dodge Challenger (305/35 R20) on mostly town for 0 average miles
I purchased 2 sets of these tires the 1st set managed to get about 16k miles and the 2nd set last about 4 months and 10k miles. I called perelli to see if they could help out with warranty and got told no. These tires is horrible and I will never buy another set of Pirellis ever!!!! If your looking for a good tire look elsewhere other than Pirelli

Given 63% while driving a BMW 128TI (225/45 R18) on mostly town for 1,800 spirited miles
My 128ti was fitted with Pirelli P ZEROS as the "performance tire" option, and I have to say, I was really hoping for Michelin. These tires don't inspire confidence in anything other than dry conditions. I know the 128 is front-wheel drive with 265bhp, but the front wheels spin so easily, both off the line and when already rolling. Turn into a roundabout hard and there'll be some front end slide... Would I recommend these? No. I'm saving my pennies for some Michelins!

Wear on edge Greater than the rest of the tire. Wheels are fully balanced so no offset. Generall driving not heavy footed.

Tire performed well all round and wore very well. However I am not an aggressive driver which helps.

Tesla Model 3 Performance (235/35 R20) on track for 6,000 average miles
I had a blowout with this tire on my new Tesla model 3 after 6000 miles. For me no Pirelli Zero ever more.

Given 54% while driving a Mercedes Benz CLS 220 (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 1,000 spirited miles
The tire is fine, and okay, however it is pretty useless in the wet. Or...even dangerous. I have a 2016 CLS 220d, sport package. I've used it with an average 245 wide winter tire. The grip was fine, fuel was fine. I just put these on back(the car is a fresh buy, but the rear tires had 1 season already on them) Front tires...i've bought hankook s1 evo3. Setup is: 255 r18 s1 evo3 fron 285 r18 Pirellies at the back. car is fine in the dry conditions. However the back is a bit wobbly...but the car is 1800kg, so i guess its fine. But in the wet. HORRIBLE. The rears are useless. For searching for the limits... In a wet normal road (far from filled with water, just wet) And the car was trying to driftin in a simple straight line hard acceleration. Like I'M having a drift car. Elcectronics were on so there was no problems, but what thell... its just a 400nm diesel with oversized huge rears...should be 0 issues, or some minor slipping. but not drifting. 1 week later i was having a hard corner to get on the highway. It was same wet, i was having some fu, so reached the corner with 55kph. (an average car with fine tíres could have it with 65-70 easily) I did not accelerate, just wanted to check the corner. The fronts were gripped like heaven, but the back. OMG. they lost their grip, exactly like on an icy road in the winter. I've managed to handle the unexpected huge drift/spin since im used to this; and the electronics helped as well. But it was a horrible experience... This tire cannot handle wet. this tire thinks that wet is ice. :D The loss of grip is not progressing. Its like fine-fine-okay- and once something more swift happening: instantly loses all the grip. Tire pressure is fine in all of the tires. The Hankook fronts are like glue in the same situations. The replaced front-back 245 snow oriented winter ones were much stable as well. 285 rears on a 1.8ton car, with underpowered engine should be fairly good weapon in the corners, no matter what is the weather... Summary: Please dont buy this crap, if you want to survive wet conditions.

Given 67% while driving a Volkswagen Golf GTI MK7 (225/35 R18) on a combination of roads for 1,000 average miles
I have recently bought a 2016 Golf GTi which came with these fitted and they are not far off new. In the dry and warm the grip is excellent, you can really lean on them and feedback is good. They are also acceptably quiet and comfortable. However they are lacking in the wet. Damp cold conditions reveals particularly poor traction and grip. They are ok in warmer wet conditions but don't cope particularly well with standing water. Overall an acceptably good tire if you live in a warmer climate but it hasn't got a balanced range of abilities like a newer Michelin or Goodyear equivalent.
