Winter Sottozero 3 — 245/40R18
Pirelli's third-generation Sottozero (Italian for below zero) is engineered for drivers of premium, high-performance vehicles who face challenging winter conditions year-round. Designed not just as a snow tire, but as a true seasonal performance tire — excelling in cold, dry, wet, and wintry conditions.
★ Top 3 Features
Innovative Winter Compound
Specialized polymers improve the tread rubber's mechanical, thermal, and dynamic properties — staying flexible in sub-zero temperatures for reliable grip on snow, ice, and cold wet roads.
High-Density 3D Sipe Technology
Significantly improves braking performance and snow-to-snow traction across all winter surfaces, giving drivers confident stopping power even in challenging conditions.
Directional Tread Pattern
Arrow-shaped center blocks and rounded shoulders form an enlarged contact patch that efficiently expels water and slush, reducing hydroplaning risk on wet winter roads.

- Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) certified for severe winter service
- Trusted as OEM fitment on premium European performance vehicles
