Pirelli Cinturato CN12 (Collezione)

The Pirelli Cinturato CN12 (Collezione) is a touring all-season tire that prioritizes comfort and noise, matching the category averages with scores of 8 in both areas. This makes it a good fit for drivers who value a serene driving experience. However, its wet grip score of 5.5 is a weak point, trailing behind the category average of 6.9, which might be a concern for those frequently driving in wet conditions. In terms of dry grip and handling, the CN12 performs respectably with scores of 7.5, offering reliable performance on dry roads. However, it lacks a treadwear mileage warranty, which is a disadvantage compared to competitors like the Continental ProContact TX that provide such coverage. Additionally, the UTQG treadwear rating of 500 is slightly below the category average of 596, hinting at a potentially shorter lifespan. For those comparing options, the BFGoodrich Advantage Control and Continental ProContact TX offer better coverage and potentially longer tread life. The CN12 is best suited for drivers who are less concerned with wet performance and more focused on comfort and noise. Drivers in wet climates or those seeking a longer-lasting tire might want to consider other options.
