Good all round winter tyre - recommended by Subaru. Grips well on snow and ice (just don't expect miracles!), and still handles well when things warm up and dry out - just what's needed in our changeable British climate. As quiet and comfortable as the standard summer tyres supplied on the new car (Bridgestone Dueler).

Never got to test their ability in snow & slush due to yet another mild winter, but performed very well in cold weather, wet or dry. My car normally spins the rear wheels very easily in cold/wet conditions when running on summer tyres, but no such issues with the Sotto Zero 3, just loads of grip.

Since fitting these winter tyres (Nov 2015) we have had little snow but when it did snow, the tyres performed really well. The C-Class usually struggled even in shallow snow with Dunlop summer tyres but there was no problem with these Pirellis. There doesn't seem to be any compromise in performance or fuel economy and there is no noticeable increase in tyre noise. I would definitely buy again.

Pneumatic good, lasts slightly less than the others, but the estate is well above average.

despite the lack of snow and slush (as much as it was) the tires should be assessed as good or very good recommendable.

Great tyres for winter weather, noticeably less aqua planing on the motorway and fantastic in the snow. Great price at oponeo too.

I do not know how the durability of these tires because of the need to use them currently in Italy (summer are in the garage in Poland) but the tires are very quiet and very well improve braking as with hard use 230 horses is not without significance ...
