Pirelli P Zero Winter 2 in tyre tests

Autozeitung Winter tyre test 2025 245/45 R19
highly recommended
Ranked #3 of 10

3rd of 10 competitors — Highly recommended. The Pirelli delivered a balanced, clearly recommendable performance, standing out as the benchmark on wet surfaces with exceptional grip and high safety in curve aquaplaning; it topped the field in wet braking, wet safety, wet handling and circle cornering, and also led for ride comfort and low exterior noise. On dry roads it was nearly flawless, with precise steering, a good balance of longitudinal and lateral grip and composed behavior at the limit. In snow it showed strong traction and short braking, but tends to understeer early while remaining well controllable. Only aquaplaning protection could be better.
