The excellent UK automotive magazine EVO always seems to publish their summer tyre test late in the season, but it shouldn't be ignored as it's one of the best in Europe if you care as much about steering feel and feedback as you do ultimate grip.

This year, EVO have tested seven 225/40 R18 UHP tyres using a VW Golf GTI at the Pirelli test facility in Vizzola, Italy, and while the volume of tyres is surprisingly small for such a common size, the breath of testing was as vast as any European tyre test.

Dry

As ever, the dry testing was close, but this test showed a return to form by Pirelli.

During dry handling the P Zero had a huge advantage, finishing nearly a second over the second placed Michelin Pilot Sport 4, with both tyres scoring well subjectively by demonstrating quick, accurate steering, and good feedback.

The Michelin also had nearly a second advantage over the third place Dunlop SportMaxx RT2, with the older Dunlop lacking the traction and steering feel of the best on test. Fourth place was joint awarded to the Continental PremiumContact 6 and Falken FK510. While they finished with matching lap times, subjectively the Continental was much better around the lap, with the Falken feeling light and inaccurate. The Nokian PowerProof and new Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 rounded out the results, with the Goodyear scoring slightly better subjectively.

6Nokian PowerProof	89.2 s	+1.90 s
7Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5	89.3 s	+2.00 s

All the tyres in the Dry Handling test finished less than 3% apart.

Dry braking had a similar overall result, this time with Continental leading Michelin and Pirelli.

7Falken Azenis FK510	37.3 m	+2.10 m

The difference between best and worst was 6% (2.1 m ≈ 0.5 Car Lengths).

Wet

Once again, Pirelli dominated wet testing at their home track, with an unusually large 1.2 second advantage over just 1.8km. Michelin and Continental finished second and third place for both the timed lap, and subjective handling scores.

Dunlop and Falken placed fourth and fifth respectively in both timed and subjective handling, and the new Goodyear had another poor result finishing sixth in time, and last subjectively. This isn't something that's been shown in other testing.

7Continental Premium Contact 6	75.3 km/h	-2.20 km/h

All the tyres in the Straight Aqua test finished less than 3% apart.

Environment

EVO Magazine doesn't test NVH in a normal way, instead they run a road route on the tyre which looks at noise and comfort levels, along with steering weight, feel and feedback on the road.

In this testing, the Continental proved to be the best on the road tyre, largely thanks to its excellent refinement over all types of road surface.

If you'd prefer a little more steering feel over comfort, the Pirelli and Michelin both offered more feedback, with the Michelin doing a better job than the Pirelli of combining comfort and steering feel.

Surprisingly the Falken, which is often rated in other testing as having excellent levels of comfort at the expense of subjectively handling, was last in this test.

Subj. Comfort

7Falken Azenis FK510	18.5 Points	-5.50 Points

Rolling resistance was the weak point of the Pirelli, finishing last.

There may be a slight home advantage in tyre testing, but with no fewer than six top spots, the PZ4 P Zero totally dominated this test. The tyre dominated in both wet and dry testing, objectively and subjectively.

What about the Pirelli P Zero PZ4 vs the Bridgestone Potenza s001? I have just bought Potemza S001 Y XL for my Giulietta 2.0 as they used to have rigid flanks and last at least 25000 /30 000 km..what do you think?

  Not sure if it helps, my GQV has Pirelli P Zero PZ4 tyres which are brilliant on both dry and wet, the main issue is I´ve done almost 14.000 km and the rear tyres are practically done.

    I have done 30000 km with the last set of Bridgestone Potenza S001 and they were done. I was curious about P Zero PZ4 because I have heard that it has great holding but it's not that rigid to contrast car rolling.

      Sorry I missed this! The PZ4 should offer better wet grip than the S001, and the ride comfort should be better too. If you're looking for a good grip / comfort the Asymmetric 5 is also a great tyre to look into.

        No problem! I see, better grip! Anyway what I liked a lot of Potenza S001 is the rigidity of the tyre shoulder and I appreciated that because my Giulietta has good stability but it suffer a little of rolling so rigid tyres compensate a little.

        I'm also disappointed not to be able to view the results of this tyre as well. Just because it was on wholesale at that point people can still use the test for future reference. It would be nice to see which categories it was strongest in and how close it was in other sections. I have seen that it comes with a treadwear rating of 320 in a review in Australia. So in theory same wear as a PS4? Seriously considering these for my next two tyres as I have found them locally for £70 per tyre on 225/45/17.

The final oddity that i notice is that the Pirelli tyre is top of the class for both wet and dry handling. Considering performance in one usually means sacrificing the other i am very surprised that it was so far ahead of even the nearest competitor in both tests.
I'd better get a tin foil hat and join the conspiracy nuts at this rate.

paul brockley Sep 10, 2019 archived

Also, a Golf GTI, not even an "R"? not really the car of choice to truly test the limits of a UHP tyre. If the car was supplied by Pirelli, then again it would be safe to assume that this is their test car for that tyre, again literally tailor made for the car. However, i understand that it can be hard to find a size that all manufacturers supply for a true comparison.

#5090
1. TyreReviews paul brockley Sep 11, 2019 archived
  
  I think the GTI is dynamically better than the R, lighter, more feel, and for an 18" size, not the worst choice :)

paul brockley Sep 10, 2019 archived

Would the fact that they are using the Pirelli test track not in itself give an advantage to the Pirelli tyres? Surely the Pirelli tyres will have spent many thousands of miles more on this track than the competition. They are literally tailor made for this track.

  There can be a SMALL home advantage at the hosts track, but look at the latest few tests from Uvalde, Continentals test facility. They've not won. The huge advantage of the PZ4 won't just be doing to being at Pirelli's facility, it was by far the best tyre on test

  I'm sure there would have been no foul play, a lot of the EVO result is based on subjectivity, which is afterall subjective. The biggest surprise for me was Falken doing so badly in comfort testing, as nearly all other tests call this a comfortable tyre.

Sport tyre (Pirelli) against sporty/comfy tyres from Conti and Michelin is an useless comparison in my opinion. Should have been Conti SportContact5 and Michelin Pilot Super Sport (Since Michelin has no 4S on offer for some strange reason). I know those are older types but so is the Dunlop RT2.....

#5063
1. TyreReviews Dolf Jans Sep 5, 2019 archived
  
  The difference is the RT2 hasn't been replaced yet, the PSS and CSC5 have. The PC6 is also more sporty than the CSC5 in a lot of sizes too, don't let the name fool you

    OK, understood. One thing though: The PS4 is not a real replacement for the PSS but again, it's strange that Michelin doesn't offer the PS4S in this popular size.
    In the meantime my compliments for all the services and information on these pages. Many thanks. Greetings from the Netherlands.

    With the Pirelli naming mess it would be really helpful to know which version of the p4z did get tested:
    SC or LS - since the Pz4 dominates the wet tests also I would guess it was the LS version as I would expect the SC version to be extremely good on dry with less good performance on wet
