Review on Pirelli Ice Zero 2 225/55 R17 101T winter by Stanislaw Golkowski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product is of good quality, there is only one minor defect.

Bought tires in 2022. For two years of using this model, an intermediate result can be summed up. 1. Perfectly behaves in difficult weather conditions. Winters were very snowy, and I live outside the city. It rows both loose and rolled snow very well, clings to the last, until you stop, it will slowly pull you forward. It also performs well on ice, accelerates, turns and brakes predictably. 2. On the track behaves adequately and predictably. At a speed of 100-120 km / h in heavy snow and when the track is covered with snow, it behaves perfectly, you understand what to expect from it. It also repeatedly fell into the rain, of course not summer, but tolerably. Getting into a rut behaves clearly, practically you don’t notice it. At speeds above 140 km / h, it starts to float and it becomes uncomfortable to ride. If you drive 100-120 km / h, it's very good. 3. The rubber is very soft, but it does not sway when changing lanes, there is no feeling of rolliness, even when you enter a long turn at a decent speed. 4. Braking properties are also on top. If you need to brake sharply, and there is snow or ice on the road, it behaves perfectly. ABS works very rarely even under heavy braking. It’s also not bad on clean asphalt, but it’s better not to brake sharply, the spikes begin to roll, this is understandable. 5. Noisy, but that's okay, because these are spikes. If you have poor sound insulation, then there will be a very strong rumble in the cabin, but after running it becomes a little quieter. 6. In two years I drove about 20 thousand on it and for the whole time 2-3 spikes fell out from each wheel, but only from the front axle, I won’t say that I drive aggressively, usually like everyone else. RESULT: if you live in a snowy region, where winter is from November to the end of March and utilities do not always clean the roads, then this is just an ideal option, it will not cause you discomfort when driving, where you need to slow down in time, where you need to pull it out of a snowdrift, bought and 3-5 years you drive without problems, subject to normal operation.

Pros
  • Good traction in all weather conditions I recommended this rubber to my father, he is satisfied, 1 spike fell out in one season.
