Ranked #6 of 10
Securing the 6th spot among 10 competitors, the Pirelli Cinturato P7 C2 achieved a commendable 'Good' final rating. This premium summer tire stood out for its stable handling on both wet and dry roads, offering direct steering response with solid feedback. Its performance was particularly noteworthy in areas of aquaplaning safety reserves, exceptional comfort, and low rolling resistance, where it was unrivaled.
