The Pirelli Cinturato C3 is here, but how does it compare to its rivals from Michelin and Continental? I've put it to the test against six other tyres in the 225/50 R17 size to see how it performs across dry handling, wet grip, braking, comfort, noise, and rolling resistance.
Tyres Tested:
✔ Pirelli Cinturato C3
✔ Michelin Primacy 4 Plus
✔ Continental PremiumContact 7
✔ Falken ZIEX ZE320
✔ Vredestein Ultrac
✔ Firestone Roadhawk 2 ENLITEN
✔ Goodtrip GR 66

Summer tires (tyres) are primarily available in Europe, however a number of these patterns are available in North America too. Summer tyres are designed for temperatures above freezing (though can be used in below freezing temperatures with reduced grip), and have almost zero snow or ice ability.
