Drove these tires on mixed roads . 5k miles so far . I cant say yet about the wear or if i would buy them again .
Honestly its fair price for what u get .
The comfort is really good and road noise too they are quiet tires .
Tested them on highway for like 250 km keeping the car 140/180 km/h . Noticed a bit of vibration(no alignment or balancing problems i dont neglect anything ).
The road feedback and grip isn't statisfying . U dont know how much u can push or how much they will hold on corners as the car tends to shift its weight and that scares me a bit causing unnecesary brake or steering corrections .
Same also on country roads and mountains on +15°C all conditions
When u drive smoothly they are a breeze but sometimes i like to be an aggresive driver and these tires dont give u so much confidence in grip .
Drove mostly on dry weather . But for the miles i did on wet is pretty much the same thing .
When it comes to breaking they are smooth and really good on low speeds but on city scenarios i had (a lot of them ) when u brake suddenly and hard u cant predict where the car is going to stop .
So far saved me a lot of times and they did a good job but still no confidence (Brake pads and discs front and back were changed 1k miles before the tires . (ATE brakes)
Grip is different in diferent types of tarmac .
Previous tires i had were hankook ventus prime 2 and no compare with pirelli's for the grip .
Hankook a lot beter . The car felt glued to the road but now u have to always be extra careful .
Overall i can say these tires are for the relaxed and safe drivers and they are really good for comfort ,noise and milleage .
Grip is exellent when u are a safe driver and dont push the car .
If u drive agressively these tires dont give confidence at all .
Not sure buying again.
