Technical information
Focus: Standard-sport
A standard tyre with an added dose of sportiness — Pirelli WINTER SOTTOZERO 3 is one of them. The basis stays balanced: comfort, quietness and tread life at the level of an ordinary tyre. The manufacturer adds a stiffer sidewall or a grippier compound, so the response is sharper at speed and through corners. The ideal is that none of it comes out of the tyre's mileage.
