Review on Pirelli Ice Zero 195/60 R15 88T winter by Micha Kaczmarczyk ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good product, not disappointed.

In general, I got the impression that I chose the wrong dimension (65/195 15). Perhaps 55/205 16 would have shown itself better, because the main claim is to lateral swings. 100% great tires for crossovers, especially if you often have to climb through snowdrifts. I liked the rubber in general, but if possible next season I will try to change it to something else. Perhaps on it, but in a different dimension.

Pros
  • Very good rake in the snow, excellent brakes. Good for sliding.
Cons
  • It behaves very strange in corners, at first it slips a little, and then it catches a hook. Because of this, a feeling of instability and poor directional stability. However, if you allow limiting modes, when the rubber is already breaking off, or when it has already "stood" on the arc, then everything is perceived differently. Very smooth transition into sliding and really good hook. Very soft sidewall, and even on asphalt, the feeling of ice under the wheels is preserved. That is, it does not allow you to completely relax and sleep at the wheel, as 80% of drivers like to do. Which is a plus to some extent.
