Tyre reviews Pirelli Powergy. Page 2 754

I'm buying this brand for the first time!

And I want to say that I'm pleased like a child, the tires are soft, they absorb all the bumps. They are quiet, of course, taking into account the quality of the road surface, but when driving, the tires are almost inaudible in the cabin. The car handles well, in the rain and on a wet road, it turns and brakes very confidently, which is also confirmed by the Euro label. Very good rolling, and accordingly, good fuel consumption. I recommend these tires to anyone who needs a comfortable, manageable and quiet ride.

I bought these tires for my Audi A6 C7. There's a huge selection in this size and the prices vary. I spent a long time choosing between Chinese or not, considering Triang, Matador, and Bridgestone Ecopia. I decided to go with Pirelli because I liked the tread and the rubber compound more. The sidewall is soft, made in Russia. I've driven about 250 km and I can say that it's quite quiet after the winter Pirelli studded tires, but on the A6 it's good sound quality and the sound on another car might be different, it's all subjective. Handles well, doesn't sway. It rides well on the track, and on the Novorizhskoe highway, the left lane is one continuous track.

I haven't driven in the rain yet, but I think it should be good.

I bought it based on the recommendations of the guys who bought the new one in 2021. I'm satisfied.

Overall, the tire is great, the only thing sometimes catches the camber on the highway at high speed.

There is NO reinforcement of the tire AT ALL, as in the description, this store just made it up, both 55 and 60 have the same profile height. The sidewall is round at 2.5 atmospheres, we had Continental fifth, much stiffer. It's a couple of decibels quieter in terms of noise. Braking is increased, it doesn't bite into the asphalt like Continental does. On average, 3.5 stars.

In short: I replaced my worn-out "Michelin Primacy 3" with "Pirelli Powergy" and I don't regret it.

Further on, in more detail.

My car (Honda Accord 7) doesn't shine with sound insulation, and I drive dynamically. The tire size is 225/45R17. I've always bought not sports tires (I don't like their noise and nervous reaction to asphalt defects), but high-quality and expensive tires: Nokian (remembered for constant punctures), Dunloop (good, winter ones are especially great), Hankook (I bought the top model, and it was worthy), Michelin ("delight" was not felt, wears out very quickly, and remembered for constant punctures). I like Goodyear the most, both winter and summer are very good, but now their purchase is difficult.

I've encountered Pirelli on other cars, and overall, I rated them as a four. Choosing between Ikon and Pirelli, I decided not to return to the Nokian clone and try (according to reviews) something new.

I'm very pleased. From "incredible divine" Michelin, I switched to Pirelli, and almost didn't notice any differences: it became a bit louder when driving over railroad tracks, when sharply changing lanes, the car slightly shifts due to inertia, and that's all.

From the identified advantages:

1) there is no annoying noise (hum) (I drove at a speed of one and a half hundred kilometers per hour), the comfort is the same as the previous Michelin;

2) there are no problems on wet asphalt, both turns at speed and dynamic braking, everything works well;

3) it doesn't catch the rut (and the previous Michelin slightly pulled), it drives steadily, doesn't stray;

4) the balancing is quite normal (the maximum weight on one of the wheels is 30 grams);

5) it drives on dirt and gravel roads without a rattling vibration, quite normally;

6) the braking is excellent, doesn't lead;

7) the Pirelli I knew before looked like bagels on the disks, the profile was somehow rounded, this model looks "right": both the sides and the top edge are close to flat.

From what I would like: there is almost no rubber rim to protect the disk, a useful thing, but you can live without it.

I can't write anything about using it in winter (I usually change to winter tires), but I decided not to remove points for this. And I can't accurately describe its behavior on really deep puddles, such ones didn't occur, but it drives through small ones without problems.

In conclusion, if I need to replace the tires, and Goodyear doesn't appear in accessible sale, then I'll buy this model again, which I recommend to everyone.

Mileage from the beginning of the season is 5000 km.
The main advantage is that in the city, they absorb all the bumps, on the highway up to 160 km/h, there is almost no noise, they hold quite well for such a price. The car wanders a bit at speed, but not critically, and dives into turns with enthusiasm.
On 18-inch rims, they look like "domes", which is a matter of taste.

The tire is good, especially in the rain, it handles wet roads with puddles very well, a bit noisy

I've driven on these tires for 2 seasons. I bought them new, 5 weeks into 2023. Made in Russia.

At the time, I got them for around 6,000 rubles per tire, which was quite cheap even back then for 225/40 R18 92Y.

I had high expectations for them after my previous Vredenstein Sessanta tires.

What really impressed me was the traction and handling. My car has a sport-tuned suspension, front-wheel drive, and I drive quite aggressively, with the ESP kicking in very rarely, unlike my previous tires.

The sidewall is fairly stiff. I sometimes drive on rough roads and hit deep potholes, but I haven't had a single blowout despite the low profile and 2.5 bar pressure.

What didn't impress me was how noisy they are, and depending on the type of asphalt, they also produce a humming sound. Driving on these summer tires is reminiscent of driving on studded winter tires in terms of noise and hum.

Additionally, I should note that handling on wet roads is subpar - hitting puddles can be quite challenging, and even when driving through shallow puddles, the car pulls to the side, requiring corrections. Fortunately, I haven't experienced any aquaplaning.

Overall, they're not a bad tire for the price I paid, but from such a renowned brand, I expected better, especially in terms of noise. They'd be fine for city driving, but in my case, I spend 80% of my time on the highway, and the noise level plays a significant role.

I bought the tires based on the price when everything skyrocketed in the spring of 2022. The tires are on my wife's car, she's satisfied. In principle, they're quiet (I'm judging as a passenger), I can't say anything about handling. My wife says it's normal.

Disadvantages:
A hernia appeared after 2 weeks of operation, the return period has expired!
Import substitution at the highest level!
I do not advise anyone!
