Comparison: Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF2 vs. Continental AllSeasonContact

The Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF2 and the Continental AllSeasonContact are both all-round tyres. However, they present variations in their performance, strengths, and weaknesses when subjected to different tests.

The Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF2, manufactured by Pirelli, performs well with low rolling resistance and a short braking distance in the dry. Although it's comfortable with low exterior noise, it has limited snow and wet grip in braking and handling. In the tests conducted, it secured the 4th position at Autoklub ČR out of 10 tyres and 14th at Autobild out of 32 tyres. However, its overall rating remains at 69%.

On the other hand, the Continental AllSeasonContact made by Continental, has an edge over the Pirelli tyre, earning an overall rating of 76%. It shows good handling both in wet and dry conditions and demonstrates good snow braking and handling. It also maintains low rolling resistance like the Pirelli tyre. However, it tends to have higher internal noise and weak snow traction, along with extended dry braking. In comparison tests, it secured the 2nd position in Autoklub ČR and 10th in Autobild, outdoing the Pirelli tyre. In addition, it won first place in the Gute-Fahrt tyre test.

In conclusion, while both tyres are sound choices for all-round use, the Continental AllSeasonContact tends to outperform the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF2 in various tests. Its strengths in handling under different weather conditions and its superior performance in comparison tests make it a more preferable option. However, the Pirelli tyre is also a competitive choice with its lower rolling resistance and better grip in dry conditions, providing a quieter ride.
