Tyre reviews Pirelli Winter Carving Edge. Page 2 251

I've spent 2 winters on them. Mixed feelings: the noise turned into a roar and I had to throw soundproofing in the arches... didn't help. 50-60% of the tread wore off on the front wheels, and I lost 2-3 tread blocks on the rear, but the profile almost remained the same. The car is obedient and handles well, feels safe on snow and ice, but has very sharp oversteer in turns and during sudden lane changes

I bought it on X6 only because I couldn’t find a runflat tyre with mixed sizes from other manufacturers. Nokian is only one size, while all others are only stickers. The tyre is excellent, beautiful, but VERY noisy. From 60 km/h it sounds like an electric locomotive. The studs aren’t particularly loud, but rather a rumble turning into a shriek! On another car, I have Nokian Hakkapeliitta 7, which is like a

Hello everyone!
I was planning to buy this tyre today, but it got my attention with three rather significant issues:
1. A huge streak (finger) on the inner surface (apparently a bad cord splice);
2. a RASH (I guess that's what it is);
3. so much mould release agent was applied in the moulding process that I had to spend a long time cleaning my hands afterwards, and the mixture feels quite hard

I noticed this tire because of the price. Read the reviews, only complaint was noise, so I decided to take them. 100% satisfied with my choice. Previously, I was using Michelin X-Ice North, which performed well on ice and snow, but skidded on the asphalt. On the Pirelli, I feel almost as if I'm on a summer tire on the asphalt. The tire handles confidently on ice and braking. I directly compared two cars, one was on

Bought in 2008, ran three seasons. I think it's normal tire, though I have nothing to compare it with. The car behaves predictably on the road. Braking is normal, it stops where it should. The noise is quite acceptable, and then you just stop paying attention to it (everyone's nervous system is different). Weekly trips to the countryside on tough hills, in snowstorms and on ice – no problems. The tread wear is minimal, and most of the studs

Good tire, drove on it for 3 seasons, no problems. Car X-Trail, 16" tire, still good for another season, two more will be enough. 98% tread still intact. Noise? Why shouldn’t it be? But it is acceptable. Mode - MКАD in winter, Moscow-Perms highway four times a winter, ice, mush, snow, dry asphalt. Speed up to 150 km/h (all-wheel drive), no problems. Braking

Before purchasing these tires, I exclusively rode on domestic ones: Amtel Nordmaster.

I decided to take something more worthy, and regretted it after the first trip beyond the city limits, I have never encountered such terrible rubber, in the harsh realities of Russia (winter off-road) this tire really doesn't work...

All the good things written about this tire have nothing to do with reality, and the reality is that this tire is exclusively for the city, winter,

Everything is fine, just very noisy

I've been driving for literally the second month. Immediately noticed the terrible noise on asphalt at a speed of 60 and above. The grip is excellent, both on snow and on ice - there are no problems at all. The studs come off naturally according to the usage period, I haven't identified any issues yet. Naturally, it rides softly and quietly on snow. If it weren't for the awful noise, the tires would be fine. I think

bad

I bought them in 2007. The first impressions were not bad, they held the road well on turns. But braking on wet ice was only 2 points, straight ahead. The most important thing is the NOISE. It's okay if they made a monotonous noise, but they muffle and bang as if there was a section of very hard rubber in one place on the wheel. It's all nothing, but this banging on bare asphalt just kills. In

normal (recommended for a collective farm)
Off-road tire, quiet on dry pavement, wet - squealing mercilessly. The sidewall is very strong and rigid, the wheel itself is heavy. Direct purpose - driving on snow, can be on ice.
Pros: Snow
Cons: Wet - the noise is terrible, you need to install an audio amplifier in the car.
