Great summer tires:
- Amazing quality/price ratio when bought in 2021
- Excellent on dry roads: good lateral grip, short braking distance
- Good comfort/handling balance: good steering feedback, predictable handling, handle well rough roads as well as highways
- Decent lifespan : 32'000km
- Average good on wet roads: good lateral grip when new, hydroplaning can happen below 3mm of tread, poor grip on cold wet roads around 3-5°C, when you'd normally switch to winter tires
- Quiet when new and got a little noisy after a year and 6'000km
- Cope decently well with the heat, they can do 15~20km on a race track before handling gets sloppy. Handling when hot is still safe and gets back to normal once cooled down. There's no way to overheat them on open roads.

I switched from Continental PremiumContact 6 which were amazing to Bridgestone Turanza T005 because I wanted something more comfortable for city driving. After 6,000 km, I honestly regret buying them. Sure, the ride is smoother, but the dry grip is way worse. The car takes longer to stop, and the ABS kicks in almost every time I brake hard and that’s only at 40–60 km/h.
Every time I try to accelerate to get out of an exit, the tires spin, even with normal acceleration. The steering feels light now, like there’s no connection to the road. And taking a corner above 60 km/h makes the car feel unstable or bouncy. The worst part is emergency braking the tires just slide and keep sliding. I really don’t feel safe on them anymore.
In just three months, I’ve had more sliding and ABS kicking in than I ever did in three years with my old tires. I’m already thinking about getting rid of them. As for wet grip, I haven’t tested it, and honestly it’s not important to me since it barely rains where I live.

Had the RS stamped ones as oe for my 2019 megane rs 300 trophy. Great on track and really suit the car working with the excellent chassis. Downside is very hard tyre with the already stiff ride and poor in standing water. Had to drive at 40mph on a motorway due to standing water as the car was aquaplaning. Fantastic if your "on it" but a bit much day to day

I’ve owned these tyres for two years and covered around 22,000 km. Overall, they’re decent when it comes to road handling, especially on dry surfaces—they feel stable and are pretty quiet, which makes driving more comfortable. I’ve noticed that even after two years, the tyres have maintained their characteristics well and show logical signs of wear, which is something I didn't expect from these pirelli's.
However, things aren’t as positive when it comes to wet conditions. The wet grip is far from reassuring and, honestly, quite unpredictable at times. For tyres that are marketed as a top-shelf choice, the wet handling is disappointing and, in my opinion, unacceptable, especially considering that even some budget brands I’ve tried in the past performed better in the rain.
The other major issue I’ve observed is their sensitivity to temperature changes. It’s unsettling how much the tyres’ handling and grip can change throughout a drive—sometimes they feel very different at the end of a journey compared to the start. This inconsistency undermines my confidence in them and is the biggest reason I can’t give a strong recommendation.
In summary, these tyres deliver satisfactory performance in dry conditions and hold up well over time, but their wet handling and temperature sensitivity are major drawbacks. If reliable wet performance is a priority for you, I’d suggest looking elsewhere.

Before these tyres I drove Kumho Solus all season tyres and was disappointed with them. They lasted 40 000 km, but grip was average on dry, bad on wet and when I tried them in snow I only managed to drive half way up a snowy road close to my house where I live.
After a lot of thinking and calculating once again I decided to buy all season tyres since buying two sets of premium winter and summer tyres is nowadays rather expensive (especially if you drive 35 000 km per year as I do). But this time I watched probably every possible review of every tyre ever made.
And that's how I ended up buying these Pirelli tyres. And they are amazing. I've driven them for about 2000 km. On dry roads almost every tyre will be ok, the question was how are they going to behave on wet roads and in the snow? I really pushed them to the limit in these conditions and they performed great. Grip in wet is amazing, tyres are giving me a lot of confidence. This year I went to the exact snowy hill to compare them with before mentioned Kumho tyres and they performed great, climbing up a snowy and muddy road without a problem.
They will probably not last as long as Kumho but we'll see.
All in all, I would definitely recommend these tyres.

For the first time in 41 years of driving, I searched to fit the same tyres again and in all 3 family cars of ours.They are very silent, very durable and capable in all conditions minus snow/ice. I hope Kleber goes on producing them for very long!

Tire set price was around 255€ in Poland. I was driving on motorways with speeds 120-180 kph both in dry hot weather and in the rain and felt safe. When properly inflated, tires yields better fuel consumption on such speeds. Grip was also ok in the city rapid accelarations and in the dirt. No noise from tires whatsoever comparing to my winter set of Gislaved or allseason tire which was assembled on rented car which I was driving few monthes ago. Price quality ratio is very good with these. Current tread depth after ~7000 kilometers is 7 mm

Really good tires for everyday use on an average car.
The dry and snow performance seem slightly improved compared to the Vector gen-2, but the lateral grip is still average on snow and the price is also increased.
I really like the "idiot-proof" feeling where the tires squeal but actually have plenty of margin before they really start sliding. It's also very progressive when the grip comes back, even on snow/ice.
Those tires are great in the rain and do well in winter conditions. I wouldn't recommend them on twisty roads in hot weather since they don't seem to cope so well with the heat. They give a "floaty" feeling when too hot, otherwise they do a good job. You can consider those as winter-biased tires.
They don't seem to wear too fast, they give reasonable fuel economy and they are quiet.

I heard those were good tires, but I didn't expect to get so much.
Excellent dry lateral grip and great feedback while staying comfortable. Perfect steering response on uneven pavement.
I'm impressed by the fact that the unimportant things (gravel, potholes) are well filtered, but the feedback stays excellent and let you feel the sidewall slowly flexing with tons of safety margin.
Not used under extreme rain so far, but it did well and felt safe in light rain.
I only got two fitted at the front and kept Goodyear Vector gen3 at the back. It seems to be a good balance on a light car. No oversteer unless you really want it.
Good fuel economy, quiet at highway speeds. Good value for the money and available in many sizes.
I have heard the performance degrades after a few years, we'll see.
I was hesitating with the Falken ZE310 that have similar test results and reviews, I just got the ones that were in stock.

I almost got PS4S but saw the Bridgestone chosen for some new supercars and as they were 30 Eur per tyre cheeper than the PS4S so I ordered them. Really impressed till now. In the dry they are great and grip straight from the garage in comparison to the old S001 and P-zeros that I had which needed some kilometers before gripping at all. The wet grip is also massive, first tires that let me enjoy the RS in the wet. Realy loving them for now.
