If you plan to change your tyres after three seasons for new ones, I recommend it. My tyres cracked in the tread grooves after 35k. The tyres are noisy, I compare them with yokohama winter tyres in driwe - I can't hear the difference. When it comes to grip on dry and wet surfaces it is VERY GOOD. these are the only pluses of these tyres. I'd also add that they look tragic on the wheel, the kind of potato chips you get on a big Fiat. Durability is the worst disadvantage of these tyres.

After two days from purchase a bulge showed up on the tyre! I only did 60 miles. It is a pity becausegenerally the tyre looks good and there happened to be such an unpleasant surprise. if it wasn't for that, Pirelli P7 Cinturatos would be a great choice.

I have already driven several sets of different Pirelli tyres. From the P3000 to the P7 Cinturato. Probably using Pirelli is a matter of getting used to the brand. I had reservations about the last set I used, because after about 20,000 km I was "catching slippers" very easily. I bought a new set. When putting the tyres on, they were weighed and I experienced a shock: in order to balance them, I had to put on approx. 70g. weights. This has never happened before (15-20g was sufficient). I don't know why tyres up to 240 km/h require so much lead. I think these are the last Pirelli in my career. As for the tyre itself - I recommend it in the wet.

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.

The biggest surprise is that the tyres are considerably louder than the winter continentals. After 15,000 miles I'm thinking of replacing them as there is very little tread left. I drive a lot on highways, sometimes 160-200 so maybe that explains the wear. I advise against

I have no idea why Pirelli, got BMW approval.... I’ve said ‘Bye!’ to Run Flats due to a very hard suspension. I am unpleasantly surprised after changing winter to summer tyres. Pirelli P7 Cinturato is very loud and noisy while speeding – like driving a van. Looks like a balloon: sidewalls are round. As for the tracking capabilities – everything is ok apart from the noise while approaching a band. Very good on wet ground, soft in general, comfortable on bumpy road and very noisy when braking. Not recommended!

Earlier models were not very satisfying, and Pirelli P7 Cinturatos are silent and have a good grip.

I did only 25000 miles on these Pirelli P7 Cinturatos - then the tyre has feathered (suspension was fine and set properly). Noise level during use was equal to the noise when you have damaged bearings.

Unfortunately, one of the tyres that was fitted to my car has a defect. It is noticeably louder. The faster I drive the louder the noise gets. It sounds like it is "beeping". This is not a result of bad balance, as it has been checked 2 times and shifted from front to rear. After driving for an hour at 90-120 km/h the noise remains in the ears. This is probably due to a manufacturing defect. In my opinion, a premium tyre manufacturer should not make such a mistake, which is why I give the tyre an average rating. With higher torque on wet roads, the car loses grip when accelerating. The tyre is not prone to excessive abrasion so I give extra points here
