Pirelli · Performance Winter / Snow

Winter Sottozero 3 — 255/40R18

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. RUN-FLAT

★ 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.

Performance & Technology

  • Twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped polyamide enhance thermal stability and reduce sensitivity to temperature changes
  • Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) certified for severe winter service
  • Trusted as OEM fitment on premium European performance vehicles
  • Recommended for sport sedans, coupes, luxury cars, and high-performance vehicles
  • Install in sets of four only for optimal handling and performance

⚙ Run-Flat Technology (RFT)

Reinforced self-supporting sidewalls allow continued driving at up to 80 km/h for approximately 80 km after a complete pressure loss — giving you time to reach safety without an emergency roadside stop.

  • Maintains vehicle stability and control after a puncture
  • Eliminates the need for an immediate roadside tire change
  • Requires a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) and RFT-compatible rim

Warranty

  • Uniformity Warranty: 1 Year / First 2/32" of wear
  • Workmanship & Materials: 6 Years / Free replacement first year or 2/32" wear, then prorated
  • No treadwear warranty (seasonal performance tire)
