245/40 R19 Tyre Review Highlights
Writing about the Pirelli P Zero All Season rated 28%
while driving a BMW BMW M440iX GC
I'm writing to share my experiences with Pirelli tires, as I've had two instances in the past decade. The first was around 10 years ago when I fitted a set of their all-season tires (I do not remember the model). At first, I found them quite peculiar; for the initial 500 to 1000 miles, the car had an unsettling floaty feel at speeds 45-55 mph on concrete roads. It felt like driving a boat! Over time, it improved, but I only put 16,000 miles on them before replacing them.

My current experience with Pirelli P Zero All Season tires on my BMW has been much worse. They're factory-fitted, but the car's handling is unpredictable. Some days, it's bearable, while others, tramlining (following road grooves) terribly on the same roads at the same speed, seemingly temperature or maybe moisture dependent. After about 350 miles, highway driving feels like I'm navigating a high-speed boat in choppy water. These tires might excel on German autobahns, but they're far from ideal for Colorado's concrete roads. The ride comfort is virtually non-existent; they transmit every road imperfection, even with the adaptive M suspension in comfort mode. Uphill driving on curved roads induces a slide-like feeling. I'm extremely disappointed with these tires.

I've tried adjusting tire pressure with no noticeable improvement.

Writing about the Uniroyal RainSport 5 rated 80%
while driving a BMW 530 D Sport Touring
I have an F11 BMW 530d Touring. I normally buy budget tyres as I'm not generally a fast driver. My previous car was a Vauxhall Insignia estate & I had to change tyres every year. However, after trying budgets on my BMW and finding rear grip in the damp & wet lacking I decided to get Uniroyal Rains ports after reading reviews. They have been true to reviews I read. These tyres are absolutely fine in the dry with grip & comfort being decent. The sidewalls are a wee touch soft which can lead to some slip in the dry if you're really motoring round bends but nothing unpredictable. It's in the wet they really shine though. I've had dozens of cars and these tyres are the safest & most planted I've used in damp and wet conditions. They just feel rock solid the wetter it gets. My greatest surprise has been their wear. I've done 18k miles and they still have 3mm on them. This is by far the most I've ever had tyres last. My wife's Kia Xceed came with Continental sport contacts on it and they were done at 11.5k miles!

Writing about the Continental WinterContact 8 S rated 73%
while driving a Cupra Formentor 4Drive 333hp
Did around 7k km on my Cupra Formentor 4WD 333hp with these tyres in Lithuania (eastern Europe). Dry and wet grip is superb, didn't have a single scenario where these tyres would underperform. However expected much more in terms of snow/ice grip. On snow I have to be careful, don't have good grip (even on light snow). Plenty of times rear of the car slid out a bit even in normal-ish driving, not to mention a bit more spirited drive. On ice grip is terrible, or rather way worse than I expected from 1k € tyres. Obviously these are performance oriented, so perhaps my mistake buying them. Still though, from Continental winter tyres I expected better grip in difficult conditions. Really can't say that I have confidence in these. Again - dry and wet asphalt grip is great. If you don't have snow/ice - these tyres will be a great choice. Otherwise I would suggest to look into something less performance oriented, if you value your safety that is

Writing about the Michelin Pilot Sport 5 rated 66%
while driving a Jaguar XF
They're really good tyres in terms of driving, grip and handling and served me brilliantly on my 50:50 split of fast motorway commute and city driving

But...

I only got 10000 miles out of them on the rear axle of my car. They've worn more than twice as fast as the Michelin PS4s I previously had under the same driving style and driving conditions so consequently I feel they're poor value.

(I've checked and it's wear across the entire width of both tyres and so it's not a suspension issue. They just wore out quickly)

Driving on a combination of roads for 18000 average miles
I am not satisfied with these tyres it came with car from manufactur tyres are so noisy specialy on highway,tyres are not stable on 90mph+, lot of understeer in mountain roads and in wet city so I cant drive sporty spiritted, on highway with lot of rain so much aquaplaning compare to other tyres, steering is slugish and it has some crack after one season after 4 season and around 18000 miles it has a lot of cracks some of them big some smaller but after around 18000 miles it has 3.7 - 4mm tread but I take it of and replace with PS5

Driving on a combination of roads for 10000 spirited miles
These tires are absolutely phenomenal on snow and ice (perfect grip), the direction changes are immediate and you can really feel a very strong grip on wet and cold roads as well. I couldn’t imagine that a winter tire could be so sporty and so enjoyable to drive (not noisy). The only trade is that they will last only 2 winters if you like to have fun but that’s the price you pay for an absolutely great driving experience ! I really recommend the Pirelli P zero winter 2 !

Writing about the Continental SportContact 7 rated 100%
while driving a Opel insignia
Driving on a combination of roads for 3000 spirited miles
Replaced the Michelin pilot sport 4 on my dad's insignia with the sport contact 7 after reading all the tyre reviews tests and opinions. Honestly, they may even be better than what people say. Dry grip, honestly, way better than the already perfect PS4. I feel like I can't break them into understeer whatever I do to them. Wet grip is also very safe and stable. We've only used them for less than 5000km so can't rate the wear, but they look like new. They are also really comfortable, maybe not as much as the PS4 but veery comfortable and quiet. The perfect UHP summer tyres in my opinion.

Driving on a combination of roads for 0 spirited miles
Been waiting for exactly this tyre - all season with a sporty bias. Don't believe a 5 series requires a full UHP tyre.

Recently got a full set fitted and having done a few hundred miles now initial impressions are good. Dry and wet grip is excellent. Noise levels are great too, no lounder than the summers previously fitted.
No adverse weather yet so haven't tested in the snow but time will tell, given michelin's expertise with the CC2 I'm sure they'll be fine there. Fuel economy doesn't appear to have changed. Comfort improved over the run flats previously fitted.
All in very happy so far just waiting on snow performance and wear rate. Got a good price on them too, cheaper that the PS5s I was considering.

Writing about the Kumho Ecsta Sport PS72 rated 93%
while driving a Mercedes Benz s320 cdi
Driving on a combination of roads for 7000 spirited miles
I do extensive research before buying any tire and after three months of searching I have found the right tire for my car which is w-220 S Class 2005 model with 19-in wheels from the CL 600 model.

245 40 19 at the front ps72 Sport and 275 35 19 sport s ps72.

These tires are amazing but when they are cold they do juggle the car from left to right vertically the suspension is working extremely hard because these tires are design for Precision cornering and the side wall is extremely hard but this is what I wanted, the reason behind is I did try before the Michelin PS4 acoustic on the set of 20 inch by eight and a half original Mercedes and unfortunately Michelin PS4 acoustic for a price of £1200 were disappointment, I spent a lot of money on the tires and I said to myself never again I will spend so much money on some branded tires which actually do not live to the hype, now these PS72 have outsmarted all the big brands and when I bought my four tires from ATS Euromaster in UK I spent with fitting £125 pounds each so that's that's a huge difference between spending 300 pounds each for a Michelin PS4 but that was a while ago since then I changed the other wheels to 19 inch then I went for a budget option of banoze tires, they were super soft and very comfy very good in wet however because the 275 35 and the way my S-Class is sitting on the airmatic was causing bulges on the inner side of the tire by the rim and I really dont want to end my life too early because of the tire blowout decided to swap it for something that is more reliable in terms of the sidewall because these tires and this profile, this low they tend to crack and cause bulges and they can burst so all in all in comparing to continental Sport contact five Sport contact 6 which I had a pleasure to drive in compared to Uniroyal 3 which was amazing tire but very soft going really quickly but with a right turning of the tires you could still squeeze 40,000 miles out of them so out of all these tires these are the most precise tyres I ever had.

I can only compare them to the tires I had before so starting from Goodyear eagle F1 AS2 then Michelin PS4 continental Sport contact 5 then continental Sport contact Three Some budget tires I had some tires oh of course we cannot forget Pirelli p zero.

So after all this mileage I have done over the years these tires are just beating them all in one go there so these tires are perfect in dry perfect in wet amazing in wet amazing heading back home yesterday there was a huge amount of rain starting going around roundabout or starting from a junction no ESP no traction control on after giving it some revs so absolutely amazing grip breaking same story it's super nice and super precise and size for the back 275 35 19 is in a sport s brand so the thing is the car is very jerky from left to right in vertical position when so like your head your whole body is moving with the car the suspension if it's airmatic and set up for comfort mode it's still the tires they dont want to give in, is just the tires are like stiff but when they are warm after a couple of miles it's it's a less of an issue it's still there but not as much but when it comes to a cornering when it comes to changing lanes acceleration breaking absolutely amazing tires amazing the only drawback I mentioned above is that they are so stiff that your whole body is shaking together with the car because the the tires don't want to give up they just don't want to hand over you know like they don't want to give up they are just keeping the form you know and doesn't matter, but luckily for me after a couple of thousands of miles I did inspect the tires there is a almost no visible wear the Tires at the moment and because the size of the different is different to the back then I I can only swap them side from left to right that's it so not sure if that's even necessary but then let's see how it goes amazing tires amazing amazing Tires at the Unbelievable price low price of low of a budget tire with the where the premium brands failed to be the desire so I would buy this tire again even if it means that they are not as comfy as the budget tires which were just too soft probably over time probably they will get more comfy I'm not sure I'm not sure if this is the case I am not so sure but so far I'm very happy with.

I scored in five in a comfort category because of the jerking of the car left and right and that the suspension must work extremely hard to compensate the road imperfections so much because the previous tires and Tires before the previous ones and the tiles before that where just soft and they were really good in like extending the comfort of the airmatic system these tires are just yes not that comfy they're okay but you you win some you lose some I prefer to lose a bit of comfort however they are extremely quiet extremely quiet you don't hear them at all you don't hear them at all it's just that stiffness that's the only issue if you're if you want the tires that have extremely stiff and strong sidewall you go for these you will.

Driving on mostly town for 750 average miles
Been a user for all cross climate series, except plus, I can say this one tops them all, I could not use it for snowy or heavy wet conditions yet but for dry and wet roads performance its very near to UHP tires. Steering response is good and during hard cornering you can feel sidewalls are not giving way, stable and not losing traction. A very little rubbery feeling when moving over small bumps as if car is floating but actually feels extremely better considering previous potenza s001 stone wheels, also I choose bigger tires 255 35 r19 to 245 40 r19 another reason maybe.
Comfort is also very good especially in urban areas they are virtually silent, medium to high speed there is standart cc noise which is acceptable.
I can say very good ride quality, good dry performance "breaking and traction", not a track tire of course but again if you like switching sport, summer, winter tires, this might not tickle your fancy.
I can say good summer performance
