The Pirelli Cinturato tyre
The Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 has gained first place overall in the super comparison test conducted by the German magazine Auto Bild, which involved 30 all-season tyres, purchased directly from the market in the 225/40 R18 size. The full report was published in Auto Bild’s September 2025 edition.
The magazine considered the Pirelli Cinturato to have provided a balanced performance in all weather conditions and in particular safety levels on wet roads. Plus, excellent aquaplaning resistance and performance on dry roads, thanks to outstanding handling and excellent braking values.
Good results were also achieved on snow and in durability tests with the tyre described as particularly recommended for those looking for an all-season tyre with sporty driving behaviour and high safety on dry and wet roads and naming it “Best Product of the Year” among all-season products during 2024.
The Cinturato All Season SF3 additionally claimed the top spot in comparisons conducted by Tyre Reviews for The Best All-Season Tyres for 2025/26 which is the second consecutive victory in the independent magazine’s tests.
Tyre Reviews examined nine tyres in size 205/45 R17, testing them in all conditions through 15 different tests from dry to snow, using two seasonal references, for summer and for winter and stated “There is not much this tyre cannot do as the Cinturato All Season SF3 proved to be the best in dry braking and recorded the fastest lap on dry roads, also ranking first in handling.”
On wet roads, the tyre also excelled in both aquaplaning tests, straight-line and cornering, with excellent results also in wet braking and lap time, demonstrating very good wet handling. Traction on snow was equally impressive and braking effective, with a standing-out number one in snow handling. Finally, its noise levels remained low.
