The P Zero AS Plus 3 writes another exciting chapter in the story of Ultra High Performance All-Season tires, continuing Pirelli's popular P Zero line. Channeling the spirit of their Formula 1 heritage and developed for the enthusiast drivers of sports cars, coupes and luxury sedans to deliver the performance they expect all year without having to worry about swapping out their tires from season-to-season. Dry, rain, or even light snow, the P Zero AS Plus 3 was designed for all of it.
Following up on the success of its predecessor, the P Zero AS Plus 3 introduces new polymer blend technology from Pirelli aimed to target improvement across all categories. This next-generation compound is built on its forerunners' strengths for higher levels of traction and longer mileage, thanks to stiffer material compounds and an optimized footprint.
The carefully engineered, asymmetric tread pattern features minimized void space for maximum contact with the road surface, increasing overall grip and improving wear characteristics. Larger, pitch-sequenced shoulder blocks improve dry handling while minimizing tread noise; the freshly optimized pattern features a larger footprint for even wear and enhanced cornering performance. Grooves and channels are integrated into the tread, designed to work in unison for predictable wet performance and hydroplaning resistance. The P Zero AS Plus 3 employs a variety of sipes focused on retaining traction in slippery winter weather with increased biting edges while maintaining reliable clear road handling characteristics. Additional 3D siping built into select tread blocks delivers further stability in all weather conditions.
The tire's internal structure features a polyester body with twin steel belts for increased responsiveness to driver input, while two polyamide reinforcement plies offer the reinforcement needed to maintain predictable handling and durability at high speed.
El P Zero AS Plus 3 escribe otro capítulo emocionante en la categoría de neumáticos: Ultra Alto Rendimiento Para Toda Estación y continua con la popular línea P Zero de Pirelli. Canalizando el espíritu de la herencia de su Formula 1 y desarrollado para conductores entusiastas de autos deportivos, cupé y sedán de lujo, el P Zero AS Plus 3, proporciona el rendimiento esperado durante todas las estaciones del año, ya sea en condiciones secas, mojadas o con poca nieve, no hay necesidad de preocuparse en cambiar los neumáticos en las diferentes estaciones del año.
Siguiendo el éxito de su predecesor, el P Zero AS Plus 3, introduce la tecnología de polímeros nueva de Pirelli enfocada a mejorar en todas las categorías. Este compuesto de caucho de la próxima generación, se basa en las fortalezas de sus predecesores, para lograr niveles más altos de tracción y mayor millaje, gracias a los compuestos de materiales más rígidos y una huella optimizada.
El patrón asimétrico de la huella minimiza los espacios para proporcionar un contacto máximo con la superficie de la carretera, lo cual aumenta la tracción general y mejora las características del desgaste. Los bloques grandes con tonos secuenciados en los hombros, mejoran la maniobrabilidad en condiciones secas, al mismo tiempo de disminuir el ruido de la huella; el patrón de la huella recientemente optimizado posee un contacto más grande con la carretera, para proporcionar un desgaste parejo y mejorar el rendimiento al tomar curvas. Surcos y canales cuidadosamente distribuidos han sido diseñados para trabajar al unísono y obtener un rendimiento predecible sobre superficies mojadas, al igual de aumentar la resistencia al deslizamiento sobre agua (hydroplaning). El P Zero AS Plus 3 utiliza una variedad de pequeñas ranuras tridimensionales "3D" enfocadas a mantener la tracción sobre climas inclementes y superficies resbalosas, manteniendo la confianza de maniobrabilidad en carreteras limpias.
La estructura interna del P Zero AS Plus 3 posee una estructura de poliéster con correas gemelas de acero para mejorar la respuesta al girar el volante, dos capas de refuerzo de poliamida mantienen la predictibilidad de maniobrar y durabilidad a velocidades rápidas.

Are EV-Specific Tires Better than Popular Non-EV Tires? – 2025 Test 1 - With Winter Update(39:48)
In the first test of 2025, we run it back with EV vs non-EV tires with an eleven-tire, five-category grouping. Using our pair of Teslas, we delve into efficiency, road characteristics, wet and dry handling/braking, and of course, the overall rankings when combined! Including a final chart with tires from 2024 added! Sit back, relax, and enjoy the first test of 2025!
Customer ratings show the Continental ContiProContact delivers a comfortable ride with smooth handling, aligning well with its Grand Touring All-Season purpose. Treadwear receives mixed feedback, with some noting premature wear despite moderate mileage expectations. Winter traction is a concern, with inconsistent scores (3-7) in snow and ice, suggesting limited confidence in harsh conditions. Wet traction is generally reliable (scores 6-8), though hydroplaning resistance varies. Dry traction stands out as a strength, earning consistent praise (7-10) for confident grip and responsive steering. While ideal for everyday comfort and dry-road performance, buyers prioritizing winter capability or long-term durability may want to weigh these trade-offs.

So far these tires are performing good. Traction on dry pavement is good, I was caught in a thunderstorm and roads were flooded with water. Care did not hydroplane even when going through some low spots in the road that had enough water to hydroplane. Ride is smooth and car handles very well on these tires. I will let you all know how they perform in the snow in another 6 months.

Great tires. They are holding up well and provide excellent wet/dry traction. They are also quiet . I would recommend this tire . I also love buying from TireRack.com. I get to browse several different brands of tires and compare them . I thorougjly read the track testing comments when making a decision.

...Snow traction - both acceleration and braking - is HORRIBLE. I learned to drive the van extremely carefully in the snow, luckily where I live in Michigan there hasn't been a huge amount of snow recently - if there had been, these tires would have been gone long ago...
This tire was the OEM tire on my Ram ProMaster City van. It was a comfortable riding tire with minimal tire noise. On dry pavement it served well, although with a small van it's not like I was ever pushing it too hard. I do tend to take on and off ramps a bit quickly, and this tire never broke traction. The reason I would never buy this tire intentionally, though, is that its snow characteristics are terrible, and its rain characteristics are sub-par. Hydroplaning resistance is actually pretty good, but traction is marginal on wet pavement. I would frequently spin the tires on acceleration from a standstill on wet pavement. The first gear on my van is pretty aggressive which may have contributed. Snow traction - both acceleration and braking - is HORRIBLE. I learned to drive the van extremely carefully in the snow, but luckily where I live in Michigan there hasn't been a huge amount of snow recently - if there had been, these tires would have been gone long ago. The bottom line is that this tire wasn't poor enough to outright replace from the beginning, but after 47,000 miles I can't wait to put on the Michelin CrossClimate 2's I just ordered. At 47,000 miles the tires aren't to the wear bars yet, but pretty close. If you live in the desert, this tire may be OK for you. Otherwise, I think there are way better choices.

Unacceptable Treadwear and Light Snow Performance
Didn't even last 30,000 miles. Pathetic. And this is with conservative driving habits...NO spirited or aggressive driving.
These were the OEM tires on my 2016 Honda Accord 4DR Sport. At 26,600 miles the tread depth on the front tires is 4/32 and the rear tires is 5/32. These were rotated based on the the manufacturer's recommendations and kept properly inflated. At least the treadwear was consistent across the surface patch on all 4 tires. An unrepairable sidewall puncture on one of the "better" rear tires forced me to just replace all 4 tires with a different brand.
I was very pleased with the wet performance overall. The dry traction and comfort is above average. The noise was average or slightly below average. And the light snow/slush/ice performance was completely unacceptable which is surprising. You would think a tire with such a short lifespan would have softer compounds and would therefore have better snow/slush performance. Nope! Continental somehow was able to design a tire with super soft compounds that has very little to zero traction in even the most mild winter conditions. Mission Accomplished!?...I guess.
I would NOT recommend these tires.
