Review on Pirelli Powergy 225/50 R17 98Y summer by Bogdan Bogdanov ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The product sucks and the quality is terrible.

On April 30th, I went to the store and bought these summer tires in the size 235x55x17 for a Ford Kuga 2 R. Prior to that, I was using tires of the Michelin Latitude Tour HP brand. When compared to these tires, the Pirelli Powergy tires have a far more forgiving and lightweight construction. But that was a really feeble sidewall! With its positives being: Very soft rubber. Maintains its grip well in the rain, both when traveling in a straight line and when turning. Not prone to hydroplaning in wet conditions. Got cons: Very weak side. Even at slow speeds, it is not intended to brush against curbs or enter pits because it is not built for such use. Hernias develop almost instantly. Buying is not something I would ever encourage doing. A total of four months' worth of experience, or around 4,000 kilometers.
