ADAC Summer tyre test 2023 205/55 R16 good Ranked #17 of 50The Pirelli Cinturato P7 C2 positioned 17th out of 50 in the competition, garnering a final rating of "Good". Testers appreciated its performance on dry surfaces and noted its efficiency and longevity as commendable aspects. However, criticisms were directed towards its unbalanced nature, highlighting weaknesses on wet roads and environmental impact, alongside a slight shortfall in wear resistance leading to a downgrade. In terms of driving safety, the tire's handling under wet conditions only achieved a satisfactory rating, struggling particularly with braking and handling. Although it performed well in aquaplaning tests, its grip levels and the ability to manage longitudinal and lateral forces on wet surfaces were only deemed satisfactory. Regarding environmental aspects, despite good marks for fuel consumption and weight, the tire's overall environmental contribution was impacted negatively by its wear properties and predicted mileage, which failed to reach a higher evaluation.
