Pirelli p+zero Reviews - Page 2

Given 50% while driving a Hyundai Kona N (235/45 R19) on a combination of roads for 400 average miles
Unfortunately, the factory equipped tires on my 2022 Hyundai Kona N were Pirelli P-Zeros. All the Kona N's were equipped with these high-performance tires, a poor choice by Hyundai. These tires seem to be made with a very poor compound, as they mine were in this condition after the car sat a half year on the dealer's lot: Hyundai Canada won't warranty them, as they say it is a tire manufacturer issue, and the consumer needs to contact Pirelli directly, whom I have heard is very difficult to deal with. I ended up selling the car shortly after. It's disgraceful that Pirelli would put out a product like this.

As far as ride is concerned, they do grip extremely well, but only in warm (+15C and above) temperatures. Anything close to freezing temperature or below, and they basically become like hockey pucks. Don't even THINK about driving on snow with these tires! In hot weather, they are sticky. They will pick up every bit of dirt and sand and fling it against the sides and underside of your car, so consistent use on gravel is not a good idea. Also, they are fairly loud and communicate a dull roar to the passenger cabin.

In summary, I would not purchase these tires again, no way.

On my BMW X1 the front set lasted 17,000 miles compared with 24,000 miles for previous Michelins and 25,000 on original Bridgestones. Not impressive. Good grip and fairly quiet but not worth the money. Now trying Goodyear Efficient Grip

Hyundai i20N (225/45 R18) on a combination of roads for 7,500 average miles
Front tyres only lasted 7500m before needing replacing, shocking

There's a new all season tire, can it be best?!
Given 53% while driving a Volvo (255/30 R20) on mostly country roads for 15,000 easy going miles
I didn’t think I’d have any issues with this top brand tyre. Even swapping front to back at 15k and 6mm left on rears and 5mm on fronts, still thought I wouldn’t need to concern myself at wet road conditions.

Straight braking, excellent. Saved myself from a side impact on a car pulling out on me at 27mph to zero in under 2 car lengths. The dash cam was very accurate in relaying that detail. I had a small scratch instead of a significant dent. Dry conditions.

But any corner, steep curve in the wet it is a gamble whether these tyres will grip or not. Even when they were quite new the sideways grip was shocking.

Given 57% while driving a Audi A4 (225/35 R19) on mostly town for 7,000 average miles
Two new tyres on my A4 in February, 7000 miles ago and they're being replaced now in September because they're almost bald. Can't believe how bad these have lasted on mostly motorway mileage when the 2 original ventus from the factory are still going strong from 3 years ago. Never buying these again.

Given 49% while driving a Audi A5 2.0 tfsi remapped (255/35 R19) on mostly motorways for 3,000 average miles
I bought these tyres as they are the standard ones that come with Audi A5's, but what a mistake. Off the line there is a lot of wheel spin even under light acceleration, meaning I have very little confidence in them. In the wet they are even worse, literally skidded around a roundabout recently when the road was slightly wet and when not accelerating. I can't wait to change them and get Michelin tyres installed instead. Overall very disappointed and suggest Audi change their supplier to Michelin / Bridgestone.

Given 75% while driving a Ford Mustang gt (275/40 R19) on mostly town for 21,000 average miles
All aspects of the tyres are comparable to ALL my experiences with this type of tyre ( specs ) through many years of different vehicles , from Mercedes , Porsche etc EXCEPT for the MILEAGE aspect. At some 18,500 kms I now need to replace ALL four tyres on my Mustang GT. This is around 50% expected usage - NOT ACCEPTABLE.

Given 53% while driving a Audi A4 Avant (245/35 R19) on a combination of roads for 10,000 average miles
I bought these tyres to replace the ones that were already on the car when I bought it. I have to say I've not been impressed with them. They look good, but the wear has been very poor for the price. They have worn unevenly even though ive had the car tracked twice. They are also quite noisy, and as mentioned the grip when cold or damp, especially on my FWD car, is shocking. I would not buy these tyres again

After 20K miles on a Kia K5 that my Daughter mostly drove these tires were done.
I mean barely any tread left. I would NEVER buy these tires.
Called customer service and they did not care so I will never buy a Perelli tire
and I will suggest to all to look for other brands. Happy Shopping.

I have had these on a few high performance cars when i bought them and i change them almost immediately. They are so noisy and give really poor ride quality. Rubbish grip when cold also. Terrible for the money.

Porsche Cayenne 3.6 (305/40 R20) on mostly motorways for 32,000 average miles
Had a major event today after one of these P Zeros burst its steel cables on a motorway and the tread separated. We escaped unharmed off the motorway but I’m not impressed and I’m going to take it up with Pirelli.

Given 41% while driving a Hyundai i20N (215/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 8 easy going miles
The tyres came with a brand new car I purchased 8 months ago, an Hyundai i20n. I'm sorry but they're diabolical. When coming out of my drive way or junctions if the road is even slightly damp, the don't grip at all and slip. After doing just over 7 thousand miles the front ones wore down to illegal levels. The rear wasn't as bad, but was getting near being illegal. At that amount of miles these tyres should never have worn down that much. I'm not the only one this has happened to. I don't drive like an idiot, I'm a careful lady driver with an advanced driving qualification. I have now changed them to Michelin PS5's which are a thousand times much better.
