I’m looking for a sporty all-season tyre.

Automatically reviewed answer

For an all-season tyre with a sportier feel, look beyond the EU tyre label: it does not rate steering response or handling. In ADAC’s 2025 test in 225/45 R17, the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 steered precisely and performed well on wet roads. It also finished first in a separate 2026 test by Die Reifentester in 225/40 R18. There is a winter caveat. ADAC rated its snow braking and handling only satisfactory in the 2025 test in 225/45 R17. In ADAC’s 2026 test in 185/65 R15, the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 ranked ahead overall, and the Pirelli offered less grip on winter roads. Results in those sizes cannot establish performance in yours. I would shortlist the Pirelli if responsive handling is your priority, then check a test in your exact size and confirm your vehicle’s tyre specification. What tyre size is listed in your vehicle documents?
