Pirelli P4 Four Seasons Tire Review
Standard Touring All Season The Pirelli P4 Four-Seasons tire is basically a rubber chameleon. The performance and handling on this tire is amazing. It provides great traction in dry conditions as well as in rain and light snow. If you click on the tire image to the left you can see in great detail the intricacies of the tread pattern. There are chutes to channel out water and prevent hydroplaning and sipes to prevent slippage in winter conditions. As always, if you are driving in snow and ice conditions most of the winter you will want to go with snow / winter tires rather than an all season tire. You can then swap out for summer tires that perform better in both dry and wet conditions than all season tires. The P4 has good stability, even wear, and will save you money at the pump compared to most other touring all season tires. It received its best ratings in hydroplaning resistance, ride comfort, and dry traction.
The Bottom Line:
The P4 Four Seasons tire is slightly lacking in the tread life department and noise level can be a little high but this tire is a great value overall. It sticks to the road and the performance is great, especially when cornering at fast speeds. It does come with an excellent 85K mile warranty. Pricing for the Pirelli P4 ranges from $70 to $199 per tire depending on size. Some technical specs:
