Review on Pirelli Ice Zero 205/60 R16 96T winter by Wiktor Skowroski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good product, more pros than cons.

On a Honda Civic 4D, I purchased this 205/55 R16 tire. Aggressive driving style; I travel at a highway speed of 130 to 150 km/h. I only chose to test this rubber after reading and examining the reviews because the spikes' dependability. I want to state up front that I am not afraid of loudness or a propensity for demolitions. The tires I received from a shipping business were the first source of disappointment. The publication date was the end of 2022. After shopping, I also discovered a lot of used rubber; presumably, it is not very well-liked. This rubber is excellent for city driving because it accelerates and brakes admirably in a straight line, doesn't hum up to 60 mph, and most significantly, the spikes are all present. But the track won't benefit from it. There is no need to even bring up exchange rate stability once the vehicle reaches a speed of more than 80 km/h. I initially blamed the suspension, but after inspecting everything I could think of, including the steering rack, I realized it was the rubber. Since there are other evaluations like this one, I am 90% certain of this, but when I switch to summer shoes, I will know for sure. If I am mistaken, I will alter the review. Fresh rubber does not experience this issue, therefore perhaps the issue is related to the year the rubber was manufactured. Then there are two possibilities: either the manufacturer has fixed the issue or everyone will experience it in a few seasons.

Pros
  • All the spikes stayed in place throughout the city's aggressive driving for three months.
Cons
  • In a slump, he talks a lot.
