Pirelli Cinturato WeatherActive

I have a much better grip on ice and wet conditions now. The tire noise significantly less than the stock tires on the highway. I can now hear the media at lower volumes compared to the stock Kumho solus ta31 tires.

I bought the Pirelli Cinturato Weatheractives last year summer (June 2024) and got them fitted immediately because I wanted to see if this was a tire I'd be happy with in the summer as well as winter, since it is an 'all weather' tire. It was so smooth, comfortable, quiet in the dry and handled really well in the wet. I had absolute confidence in these tires. I would go as far to say it felt better than the summer tires that were already fitted to the car (I believe Falken Azenis). I expect it to as these are not cheap! I even took it to the track once and the coach was impressed by the car's grip! I wanted to leave a review earlier on but I don't think it was fair if I didn't put them through their paces. Winter came and I survived.

This was my very first time driving in the winter, but I already had enough common sense to not do anything drastic until I got a good feel of what winter driving was like. Safe to say, these tires give you confidence in the snow, you let off the brake and you start moving. It grips. I don't think these will stop you as good as some dedicated winter tires but there were good enough. Drive like a normal human being and you'll be fine. Drive like a lunatic, even the best tires won't stop you. But these tires also allowed me to do some pretty fun stuff. I had so much confidence I was sliding it around corners and doing donuts on a "closed course" and I felt pretty in control of where I was going.

I bought these tires even before they were reviewed on this channel because they had such high ratings and they were the only premium all weather tires available for my car where I lived. DO NOT CHEAP OUT ON TIRES. IT'S LITERALLY THE ONLY THING KEEPING YOU ON THE ROAD.

Verdict: I will continue to drive on these. I absolutely love them. I will update on treadwear. As these are for North America, they supposedly have better tread life than the Cinturato SF3's available in EU but they sacrifice some performance. I will be buying another set when the time comes.

I purchased these over the Crossclimate 2 because of the better ice conditions rating. This will be my 2nd winter with them, here in Michigan US, and I have been quite happy with them. They are not as precise as my Continental DS06, but they ride a bit softer. I switched back to the WeatherActive’s just days before 6 inches of snow and they preformed confidently with the all-wheel drive.

I live in temperate Vancouver, I daily a ‘24 BRZ, and I drive it like it was made to be driven.
I bought these as my winter tires since we rarely get snow here in winter, but we do get a lot of rain and winter tire temperatures.
They are excellent in the wet. They cut through standing water on straights and curves, good braking, predictable handling and smooth transitions between grip and no grip.

I bought them after watching your YouTube video on all season performance tires a couple years ago. They’re not exactly the same tire as your European pirelli all seasons, but they are very similar.
Would buy again, and when my current oem Michelin ps4 wear out I’ll consider getting the pirelli p zero r, especially if they are on sale like the weatheractives were.

Nothing wrong with the ps4, it is an outstanding summer tire in the wet and dry. Absolutely no complaints about them. So much grip for my light little car.
