Owners most often praise the Pirelli Powergy for its dry grip, while those commenting on wet grip are generally positive too. Ride comfort is also well regarded, although not everyone agrees. Road noise divides opinion: 11 owners find it quiet, but around one in five find it noisy. Around one in five question tread life, though some report good longevity and some concerns are based on new tread depth rather than wear in use. Steering feel and fuel economy also receive mixed reports. Overall, 19 of the 35 reviews are positive, with an average score of 69.5%.

I bought these to replace Toyo TR1 on my Golf GTE. I chose them as they are the cheapest ‘famous brand’ tire in this size. Better than the Toyo in grip, handling and only £7 each more. Had Michelin when I bought the car that were very nearly new, these are close to half the price of the Michelin and honestly nearly as good in normal day to day driving. Would buy again.
These tires do exactly as they say. Dry grip is exceptional wet grip well I've had no wheels pin from these tires and they grip hard.
I can't comment on wear as they have been on only a few hundred miles but they are quiet and give responsive handling

A really good performance dry tire, not so sure in the wet as it let go at the rear end on a round about in wet conditions one time. But i'm still getting used to my car which is a M240i so quite powerful and a little tail happy anyway with all that power and torque. Tire widths are the fronts, rears are 245.35.r18. Much more confortable ride than a runflat tire, so no doubt better for the life of suspension parts as well.

Got this tire to change my old Bridgestone Turanza T005A on September 2024. Compared with my old Turanza, there is no big difference between them unless the fuel consumption. With Turanza, my Corolla could achieve 1:14 km/l but with this Powergy only got 1:12 km/l. I think it's because of the pattern. But, overall it's a comfort and good tire for your daily driven car.
I work in a tire shop and sell a few Pirelli tires, bought some for my s max and they are phenomenal, had them on 3 month so far and can’t fault them, wet grip is almost as good as Bridgestones road noise has reduced a lot, will buy again
I can say that those tires are my first Pirelli's ever and after aprox 23K miles it's time for a change. I still have some tread on them but Ford Mondeo and Pirelli I don't think it's the best combination, especially the 235/19 ones, the MPG is not that great, well actually there are a lot of things to consider.
Overall, compared with the previous ones Continental 6 those ones were much better and probably I would buy them again.
The first thing I noticed on these tires was the lack of tread depth when new, used as summer tires they have been used for 2 seasons approx 18,000 miles and are now very close to the wear bars so will likely only get 20k out of them.
They have been good for grip in wet and dry although more recently have felt more unsettled in standing water as the tread has gone down, noisier than my winter tires but perhaps this is to be expected and fuel economy not quite so good as my previous summer tires.
If they were cheaper I would consider again, but given the low tread and the price bracket they sit in I will be looking elsewhere for replacements.
After 1 year and 12,000 km, I judge the wear to be average. It should be emphasized that the noise level is absolutely low, the quietest tire for 30 years. The rolling resistance should also be low, since fuel consumption fell by around 0.4 l per 100 km. The only point that could be improved is the slightly soft flanks, which give the car a comfortable touch, but the feedback to the driver leaves a lot to be desired.
