Review on Pirelli Ice Zero FR 205/55 R16 94T winter by Stanislaw Stan Stras ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A good product, I advise you to try it.

The decision to go with this particular type was made since there was a restricted selection of rubber available in my size, and there was no pressing need to alter the size. The experience of everyday operation on various surfaces from November to February (about 9,000 kilometers of run on them), which enables me to already write something. The conditions of operation in the Hong Kong region. In contrast to Hong Kong time, the roads in the region are almost never cleaned, with the exception of the main routes, and even then, it's not guaranteed. As a result, conditions for testing tires are produced that are fairly favorable. The pattern is something between "Scandinavian" and "European," and to be more specific, the middle of the tread is "European," and the sides are "Scandinavian." I do not know how it will act on other car types; nonetheless, the pattern is something between "Scandinavian" and "European."

Pros
  • I placed it on Skoda kodiaq 2.0 TSI 4x4 215 \ 65 \ 17 103. Quiet. Excellent performance on all other surfaces other from ice; yet, on regular ice when it is cold, it is still pretty predictable and does not generate a great deal of dread; however, on wet ice when the temperature is 0 degrees or slightly higher, nothing goes so well at all. There are no issues with any of the other coatings, including oatmeal, snow, water, dry asphalt, and country roads; there are no issues, and everything is perfect. When parking a car in the Hong Kong region, rowing is a common strategy for overcoming the snowdrifts (and we don't clean the yards), and we don't clean the yards.
Cons
  • The ice, as may be anticipated from friction tires, is the site of failure. And wet ice. Everything is back to normal once you add "frosty" to the mix. The anti-lock braking system (ABS) does not activate very often, and when it does, it requires highly active braking, such as when there is a thick coating of snow, which I believe is quite expected.
