Got lucky and read this info somewhere years ago when I bought my 15. Pirelli Winter Sottozeros 3's, the thing is unbelievable in any type of inclement weather.
I honestly look forward to swapping to my downsized 205/55 16 winter tires (GSW) because they're noticeably less harsh and quieter than the stock 45 series Pirelli P7s on rougher roads.

These tires should be perfect. They provide a VERY surprising amount of grip on dry and wet roads for all season tires. I even run these tires throughout the east coast winter and they handle very well in snow and storms for all season tires.
Only cons I noticed with these tires is that they are bit more noisy and I noticed the slightest drop in mpg after putting these tires on. Tread life is bit lower than average since they are ultra high performance all season tires. I've put about 15,000 miles on them, I can probably get about another 15,000 out of them.
FYI. The K02's are great. They are however sensitive to tire pressures. I always recommend you chalk test these particular models! I am running 38psi up front and 35 in the rear. They can get very noisy if underinflated. I used them as all seasons for the year and they did extremely well in most conditions with the exception of hard packed slushy roads - just not enough grip!
I bought some BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport and have been very happy with them for a year now.
Hi everyone, I just got an e-Golf a couple of months ago and wanted to upgrade my wheels. I ended up with the Belverdere GTi TCR wheels as they're supposed to be the lightest stock 18 that VW do. They came with Bridgestone Potenzas on them that have an E fuel efficiency rating and they drop my miles/kwh from 5 on a careful run to 3 on a careful run. After hunting online, I found a set of Pirelli P7 Blue Cinturatos, which are rated A for fuel efficiency and got them fitted. I'm now back up to 5 miles/kwh with careful driving.
They are very good tires. I have run them on a GLI, Passat GT, Golf R and two Audi A4’s. They are really good on dry cold pavement. Low road noise. They do very good in snow, rain and bad weather. They do OK in deep snow. They are performance winter, so they will handle very well.
I'm coming up on 20k with my original 20in pirellis. The original back set is pretty much done.
Pirelli: hey, our tyres are about 8 years out of date, we really need to try new stuff
All of F1: Ok, we'll test them for you.
Post-test: WE HATE THESE TYRES, WHY CAN'T WE JUST KEEP THE OLD ONES?
Pirelli need to face consequences for their reckless misjudgment of tyres here. Both Stroll and Max were put in incredibly dangerous situations due to their negligence.
