Experienced both before and generally prefer the Pirelli P1 Cinturato.

Had the 16" XM2 on City 2010 and its good only in its first year, gets very noisy and ride becomes harsh after that...

Installed the Pirelli on different cars, had it on my mazda 2 and mazda 3 and they perform ok until I had to replace them after 4 years due to compound hardening. The noise only comes when the compound hardens in its 3rd or 4th year...

But plan to move to cheaper or equal priced Continentals such as UC7 as found many good user review. Wondering if any comparison between Conti UC7 vs Goodyear Maxguard for my next tyre change?
