I’m running Pirelli Cinturato P7 winter tires. This is the best snow driving car I’ve ever owned; must have to do with the small mass of the car.
I've used Blizzak, Pirelli (don't remember model), Continental Viking Contact and now Vredestein Wintrac Pro+. Blizzaks were great, Pirellis made a lot of noise on wet pavement - first time I thought I had something failing in the drivetrain. Continentals were good, but when they were almost done they failed in a really weird (scary) way that caused a lot of instability and the wet traction basically went to zero. I'm on a brand new set of Vredesteins now and so far they've been good.
If you buy it, I recommend the Pirelli Angel GT2 tires; they work very well on this bike.
I had Pirelli's on my VW and Hyundai and I never lost traction in the winter.
I highly recommend Pirelli P4 Persist's, they're really good. They'll last a long time and handle well in all sorts of weather, of course you still gotta be careful in heavy rain and snow though.
My Y with Soto zero 3s gets about 280-300 on my commute where I normally get 210-240 wh/mi with summer tires. It’s an increase but 500 seems excessive even with a heavy foot
Heavy air.
This tire is new Iron Man. This is the second chunk missing; the other tire was replaced under warranty. It’s new, maybe 2 months old.
While braking on the big straight away, every single time I was sliding, ABS kicked on, and I had to counter steer, these tires are awful and got scrubbed hard. Imo I was not overdriving though, I didn't skid much, where I did, it was very brief.
Originally came with new car 20k mile Perelli’s so I had to put new tires on fairly early
