Genuinely seriously impressive tire. I decided to use these as a winter tire as I live in Scotland.

In dry conditions manages to have acceptable levels of grip in a straight line, slight wheel spin sometimes but cannot complain since the M2 is RWD 365bhp.

Very strong tire in the dry and super progressive, really lets you know when it does begin to slip when doing spirited driving. A big strong point as these tires still allow the vehicle to be driven in a sporting manner.

In the wet they are okay for wet straight line grip, it spins up pretty easy in 1st and 2nd gear. Regardless still catches grip eventually, the handling in the wet is also okay, nothing special and is nicely progressive when the car does begin to slip away while cornering.

They are also amazing at aquaplane resistance, never met a puddle that caused the car to lose control, and I’ve been through a good few storms on the motorway with standing water, been through large street puddles/low floods. Can really have confidence driving through very poor storm like rainy conditions

In the snow these tires are brilliant, couldn’t complain at all. Was able to drive this powerful rear wheel drive without any problems in multiple inches of snow. I could rely on cornering grip (great and predictable snow drifts) it stopped well in the snow too and could go up and down snowy hills without a sweat. Genuinely very impressed and gives me great confidence for poor weather conditions.

In icy/frosty conditions, they seem to be great, pretty much felt the similar to the wet weather grip levels. Tires seem pretty good in minus temperatures, won’t blow your socks off but will absolutely keep you safe.

All in all, after being able to test the tires over a period of 3000 miles through various winter and mild conditions, I will only buy these going forward even with the price premium.

I feel like it allows my performance car to still be a performance car in the colder months. It also gives me peace of mind driving through the most adverse of conditions.

Very noisy on rough surfaces, it seems to suffer from potholes because it drags a lot more noise, excellent support on wet surfaces, in my opinion it suffers a bit from aquaplaning. Average braking on wet surfaces.
On dry surfaces I noticed that it delays the steering response, it seems to float and then leans on the curve, definitely an excellent grip but you have to understand this behavior.
I came from the icep evo 3 and the steering response seemed more direct and sporty as the sensation of aquaplaning was better but on wet surfaces they were k.o. Compared to the SF3. I have to try it on snow, I hope I won't be disappointed by the grip on snow

Amazing tires. Absolute champions in the wet, great handling in the dry, sporty feel. Matched up with an FWD SUV vehicle you will not have any problems. One thing of note, they are less sporty in the dry than the original summer tires.

Pirelli cinturato all seasons SF3 tires replace Continental ecocontact 6. I am satisfied. Better handling on dry and wet. Less rolling, reinforced tire. On the other hand, more rolling noise.

Had these to prepare for UK winter conditions for safety over my summer tires (Goodyear Eagle F1 5), and already can feel improved comfort and ride. It's hard to describe really but it just feels better to drive.
Wet is fantastic and I feel much more confident on such surfaces at higher speeds. Dry is the same, and I mostly drive on both country and town roads. Have experienced motorway with these too and the same feeling of confidence and comfort. So I couldn't be happier with the tires.

Yet to experience the tires on ice or snow but I've full faith in them.

Initial impressions: The tire is silent compared to 18 inch Michelin Pilot Sport 5's and takes bumps well for an XL tire.

Turning feels really nice at 15 degrees celsius in the dry, I am very happy with Pirelli so far, I'd even say that now my front wheels turn too quickly, I have to get used to smaller tires. Some of the tires were lightly bulged out of the factory, but still in spec for a small car. (Balanced with Hunter Road Force Elite)

I'll return with a winter review.

It has definitely been a choice that improved the driving comfort of my car. I’m pleased with the road handling. I’ve had the chance to drive around 3,000 km without experiencing any issues. With my B-segment SUV, I can now take turns more easily, and I’m satisfied with the braking distance. Both dry and wet grip have shown a significant improvement for me. The performance and safety level of my vehicle have definitely increased. I haven’t noticed a difference in fuel consumption compared to my previous tires yet. Although the suspension of my B-segment SUV is medium-firm, I feel less impact from bumps and potholes on the road, and I can notice the difference in comfort. I haven’t had the chance to try it on snow or icy roads, but I’m confident it will perform well.

Best Tire i ever Had! Way better than Conti asc2 and Much betetr than michelin cc2. Tread perfect now. Should easy last longer than 45.000km. Pirelli done the best Tire on this planet in all season market!

Best all-season tire I've ever driven

Coming from Continental's Eco Contact6 to these Pirellis, first impressions after a couple hundred km:
-Even though the Continentals were 4 years old and only ran for about 13k km during their lifespan, the dry grip was better than the Pirrelis, which I was not expecting.
Even so, I am satisfied with their performance
-Wet grip has improved, they seem very good so far, but I'm waiting to "measure" the performance when it gets cold outside. So far the temps here in Romania haven't dropped under 15c where I live
-Comfort: Noise is very good, but not as comfortable as the Continentals. Even so, I prefer lower noise and a harder tire. Steering feedback seems to have improved, but given the Dacia's weird steering system, this may be placebo.
-Haven't had the chance to test snow yet, nor icy roads

Overall I am satisfied with the purchase, and I'm looking to update this review once I get to spend some more time on them.

I'm also debating switching to these on my 4motion Passat

This review is not focused on the performance of the tire, but rather serves as a caution for those considering this tire due to potential manufacturing issues.

Here's what happened: I purchased four tires that exhibited significant vibration problems. It’s unclear whether this was due to issues in production or storage. After having the tires mounted and balanced at a garage, I noticed my car vibrating at highway speeds, so I returned to the garage for further inspection.
The garage rebalanced the tires and discovered that they were not perfectly round, which was visibly noticeable. When the tires were rotated on the balancing equipment, the surface was uneven, with varying heights from the inside to the outside.

All four tires had this issue, ranging from minor to severe.

I contacted the online shop where I purchased the tires to arrange a replacement or return, but it has turned into a long and frustrating process. It’s been a waste of time! If you are considering buying these tires, I strongly recommend consulting a local tire expert and avoiding the complications that come with ordering and mounting them through different parties.

I trust TYRE REVIEWS, which is my favourite auto-related website as a petrolhead. I genuinely believe that the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 offers top performance in its class. However, this experience has been so disappointing that I will never, ever consider purchasing Pirelli tires again.

For reference, these tires were produced in Romania during the 14th week of 2024.

I’m going to leave this mini-review here, even though I haven’t tested them in the fall/winter. They have been on the car for about 4 months and 6000 kilometers.

These are absolutely incredible tires, especially considering the fact that they are all season. Dry and wet grip is really good, braking is safe and the handling is really nice.
I think they were the best decision for this car in the family and if they behave good in the winter, be it on snow or at low temperatures, I’ll get them for the other car in the family.

Been looking for more reviews for them in that aspect and I haven’t seen many, that’s why I decided to leave my (short) experience here.
Also, the wear is really good so far. I believe that if they last for 30.000 kilometers or three years, it would be a good deal.
Really safe and nice tires overall.
Will be back in the spring with the experience after driving them in the fall & winter.
