Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF2

The Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF2 has been tested by various organizations, each highlighting certain qualities of the tire. In tests conducted by autobild, the tire exhibited high traction and short braking distances on snow, as well as a quiet rolling noise and fuel-saving rolling resistance for the 215/65 R17 size. The tire also performed well on snowy and dry surfaces, with a very good snow traction and dynamic dry handling for the 225/50 R18 size.

However, the tire faced some challenges in tests, such as understeering behavior on wet and dry surfaces with slightly prolonged wet braking distances for the 215/65 R17 size. Additionally, moderate lateral guidance was observed on wet surfaces for the 225/50 R18 size. TyreReviews.com's testing of the 225/45 R17 size resulted in the tire having the lowest rolling resistance and short braking distance in dry conditions but yielded limited snow and wet grip in braking and handling.

It is important to note that Pirelli has acknowledged the variable test results depending on the tire size and informed TyreReviews.com that the tire tested was an older spec, which has now been updated with significantly more grip in all conditions. Overall, the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF2 demonstrates strengths in snow traction and fuel-saving rolling resistance but can face challenges depending on the tire size and surface conditions.
