Tires were pleased with the adaptability. There have been no comments regarding either the directional stability or the braking performance. On asphalt and primer, things are going pretty smoothly. They don't mind if you get a little rowdy in the mud. Even with all-wheel drive, Pirelli did not allow for this to happen. They create some noise, but so did my last Pirelli Pzero after a run of 65 tons, so I'm not too concerned about them. Fantastic tires! Some pros: Price. Wear resistance is demonstrated by the fact that wear is undetectable for ten months to a season. Ability to function satisfactorily both on and off paved surfaces. With these drawbacks: Noisy. When moving, the noise level is comparable to that of a studded and Gislaved Nord Frost 100.
