Good day all!
Just wanted to pass on my experience with my new Pirelli P7 AS Plus 3 tires:
2016 ES Lux with the 18" wheels - tire choice pretty important for me relative to ride quality on our "amazing" NY roadways
Happy to report these are fantastic! The Cinturato was the previous version of this tire and have these on another of our vehicles and liked them as well.
Exceptionally quiet, great ride quality, and better traction than the Michelins in my opinion too! (Michelin not what it used to be as I see it)
Price on these is also very competitive compared to Michelin as well! We'll see about tread life - so far so good on our other car.
Just wanted to pass on in the event you are considering your next tire choice - this one's a winner!
Happy Holidays all!

I agree. I got the same Pirelli P7 AS Plus 3 tires about three months ago. Definitely quieter. I'm in Texas so I don't have to worry about snow for the most part, but ride well in rain and handle fine for my 2014 ES.Originally Posted by LexUhs65

Interesting to hear. I am considering these tires in the near future. Keep us posted how they wear after some miles and in various weather conditions.

I don't need new tires yet for my 2019 but did put the Cinturato tires on the boss's Honda. Excellent.
When it becomes necessary I'll buy the plus 3's for the Lexus...

Hard to believe anyone would run anything else than the Pirelli P7 AS Plus 3 not knowing what they are missing.
I bought the Cinturato P7 Plus 2's last December literally right before they were gone. Very happy with their performance and ride in all seasons, good to hear the 3's are getting good reviews as well.

Yes, not only are they gone, but the Plus 2s are made of unobtainium ...
Due to TPS sensor problems (posted on Low tire pressure warning light), and tire age/condition, I'm planning on replacing my 5 yr old Plus 2s. Unfortunately the shop I use can't them. In talking with them they first recommended Conti DWS 06 Plus, but I decided to go with Conti Pure Contact LSs.
Will let the list know how they seem.

Sorry, meant the Plus 3s are made of unobtainium

Don't be dissuaded to go with the updated version - I find them to be just as good as the plus 2s if not a bit better!
These seem to be readily available depending on tire size!

Ended up with Conti PureContact LS. Like them very much after a couple of hundered files. They seem to be quieter than the Pirellis.
Had all the tire pressure sensors replaced, at least one had failed.

Having trouble finding Plus 3's here. I usually get my tires installed at Costco/Sam's and I've been told that they were on a backorder for the "unforeseeable" future. Discount Tire's near me also say that they can't get any in stock for a few months. Pretty disappointing, I was super excited to try these out as I've always just had the OEM Michelin's on my 17'.
