In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from Italy (
Pirelli) against a tyre from a manufacturer from USA (
BFGoodrich).
BFGoodrich is a brand that belongs to the Michelin group. Generally,
BFGoodrich winter tyres are slightly better rated (75%) than
Pirelli (71%). The first tyre test of Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3 was done in 2015, compared to 2017 when was the BFGoodrich G-FORCE WINTER 2 first tested. Important for this comparison is also the
Autobild 2020 225/40 R18 test, where both the
Winter Sottozero 3 and the
G-FORCE WINTER 2 were tested. See more mutual tests below. When it comes to comparison, eu labels can be also interesting - 60% of Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3 dimensions has B wet grip rating. Most (100%) of the BFGoodrich G-FORCE WINTER 2 also have B wet ratings. If you wonder where the tyres in question are made, the
Winter Sottozero 3 is made in Italy and
G-FORCE WINTER 2 is made in Romania/Poland.
