OVERVIEW

The Pirelli Winter 210 Snowcontrol Serie 3 is a performance, winter tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.

The tire promotes exceptional winter weather traction. It combines its directional tread design and silica compound to improve the winter weather road gripping ability. The tread design with the high siping density provides additional biting edges needed for ice and snow traction, while the directional pattern's even pressure distribution enables the tire's close road contact. The silica-based winter compound keeps the tire's flexible traction in colder temperatures, providing a safer performing capability in such conditions. The circumferential and lateral grooves help prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the footprint to increase the winter weather performing capability and power.

The model's ideal road contact upgrades its controllability. The tread's continuous center block sequence and optimal shoulder tread block pattern maintain a firm grip on the road surface. The better road contact increases the steering responsiveness and the driving stability significantly. It enhances the steering response time and accuracy, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. The shoulder tread blocks increase the cornering and maneuvering capability and grip with the additional biting edges. The Interactive Brickwork Siping technology places an ideal siping pattern on the tread area, which firmly grips the road surface at all times. These sipes create friction at the moment of braking, which significantly shortens the braking distance even when driving on ice- and snow-covered road surfaces.

The tire's special silica-based compound and directional tread pattern upgrade the fuel efficiency. They work together to ease the driving pressure off the tire, without sacrificing its excellent traction. In this manner, the tire decreases its rolling resistance. The lowered rolling resistance lessens the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, as it is the force that determines the amount of energy needed to keep the tires in motion. The reduces fuel intake greatly upgrades the fuel efficiency throughout the tire's performance.

The Winter 210 Snowcontrol Serie 3 was designed with snow wear indicators. This pattern visually represents the tread wear rate of the tire. In case of this model, the center rib's wear loses the siping pattern when the tire is about it lose its snow traction, after which the tire is not recommended to be used in winter conditions. This happens when the tread reaches approximately 5/32”. This allows the driver to change the tires in time.
