They aren’t performing well on wet road compared to other premium brands. It drives like a rethreaded old budget tyre. Harsh ride quality and no grip. I do highly doubt it they were genuine Pirelli tyres. After 3 months of use one of them did burst on the tyre wall. I had to replace it with a brand new one. Definitely won’t buy it again.

Very slippy in the wet, but my car isn't standard so this doesn't help

Car feels more solid or the road and grips better on roundabouts... must better than the run flats.

Very quiet compared to the Nokians which were on previously. Will see how they perform in the snow in a few months. Great value and service from a great company too.

Have had snowy icy weather since replacing normal tyres with winter tyres and have been able to get up hills without problem whereas before we were having to leave car at bottom of hill because of skidding. Car feels much safer to drive in poor conditions.

As expected they are less precise than the summer tyres due to tread block squirm on dry roads. Wet grip is similar. So far they have not been exposed to snow and/or ice. There is a heterodyne frequency noise at 60mph but they are generally quite quiet for winter pattern tyres.
