Review on Pirelli Ice Zero 195/60 R15 88T winter by Adam Konowski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

Compare with Nokian Hakkapeliitta 5 185/65 R14. Pirelli on dry and wet pavement bypasses Nokian by a head, brakes perfectly where Nokian would have already gone into skidding (a car without ABS). Holds directional stability well - I drove along the M11 about 120-140, like on rails. With a small turning radius and high speed, you can feel the spikes shuffling, but the car does not blow away. On lateral stability at the level of khaki. In terms of noise, it is a little noisier than the Nokian. All my studded tires were noisy, I have not yet met a quiet studded tire. In frost, it showed itself perfectly, on ice the handling is excellent. It goes well on the snowy crust, but does not like the track + snow, it starts to chat very much. In general, excellent tires for city style 70%, countryside 30%. If most of the time you have to drive on snowy crust and unpaved roads, I would recommend the Nokian, but for the city and occasional trips to where the Velcro will start grinding on the ice, the Pirelli is much better.

Pros
  • Excellent rulitsya on dry and wet pavement, provokes to drive more aggressively. Balanced with a bang: the weights are a maximum of 5g, but rather because of beaten disks.
Cons
  • The rumble of the aircraft is present, however, the ride is not annoying.
