Honestly, the worst winter tires I’ve ever had! Put these on my Explorer and after driving around 1000 miles in the snowy roads of Vermont, I’m really disappointed. They just can’t handle the snow and ice at all... It’s like driving on slicks. I’ve been in snow country for over 25 years and expected much more from Pirelli. Total letdown.

These Pirelli SWs on my Pacifica Hybrid have been fantastic! I've driven about 6k miles, mostly around Newark, OH, and they are just way better than the factory tires. They handle amazingly well even when it’s dry and warm, which is surprising for winter tires. Plus, they're super quiet... you barely hear them. Seriously, these tires feel like a dream.

Honestly, the worst winter tires I’ve ever had! Put these on my Explorer and after driving around 1000 miles in the snowy roads of Vermont, I’m really disappointed. They just can’t handle the snow and ice at all... It’s like driving on slicks. I’ve been in snow country for over 25 years and expected much more from Pirelli. Total letdown.

These Pirelli SWs on my Pacifica Hybrid have been fantastic! I've driven about 6k miles, mostly around Newark, OH, and they are just way better than the factory tires. They handle amazingly well even when it’s dry and warm, which is surprising for winter tires. Plus, they're super quiet... you barely hear them. Seriously, these tires feel like a dream.
