Default Cinturato P7 All Season Plus

So I talked to the dealer about me shipping the Cinturato P7 All Season Plus tires to them from Tire Rack so they can mount them for me. But the service advisor told me that those tires are not good and that after awhile they become noisy. Now I have done lots of research on here and Tire Rack and all I got was Positive reviews. My question is to anyone here who has these tires for over 10k mi, are they still quiet and smooth?

They're full of it. They just don't sell Pirelli tires and they want to sell you the tires.

Order them from TireRack and pick a highly rated installer and have them installed there.

My set have about 15,000 miles on them and are just as quiet and smooth as when they were new. If replacing them today I wouldn't even shop, I would just buy another set.

I will have them installed today. It might need some break-in time for a week or two.

I put a set on about 12,000 miles ago and will buy nothing else for the LS. They stick like glue when it is raining cats and dogs. They handle great and are very quite. You are going to love them.

Bingo!

Now let's see, who do I believe, a bunch of actual users here and on Tire Rack, or a salesperson who doesn't sell that product? Hmmmm, I wonder.

I only have 4000 miles on mine, but I am very happy with them. They replaced Conti Purecontact Ecoplus which were just a tad quieter, but the Pirelli's are not noisy.

My Pirellis have actually gotten quieter I think.

Yeah, great tires. I had them for two years I think on my previous car and they never increased in noise over that time. Felt the same and drove as quiet as ever. I put them on this car as well, great tires!

if you have an Amazon account, can even order them on Amazon at a super low price, then have them installed locally. Not sure if you get any better warranty coverage via tire rack .com or not .....

the OEM speed rating on the LS I assume is V rated for the LS460. Did you stick with a V rated for those Pirelli's , or H rated?

The OEM rating is V rated, I stuck with that. I don't believe H rated were available in that size.

I am still breaking in my new p7 plus tires. I do feel more rubber on my rim when hitting potholes than my 7/32 tread kumho tires. In terms of quietness, kumho tire is not bad
