Think twice if you need

245/40R18 Pirelli Cinturato WeatherActive – 3PMS All Weather Directional Touring Winter

Category: All Season – Grand Touring

The Pirelli Cinturato WeatherActive is an all season-tire engineered with an increase in snow performance. The Three Peak Mountain Snowflake rating gives you confidence in harsh conditions while the all-season tread compound continues performance year-round. The Cinturato WeatherActive has excellent wet performance and with its new directional tread pattern that offers peace of mind driving. It also has a 95,000km tread life warranty for all sizes.

Carries the 3PMSF symbol — tested and rated for severe snow service. XL (Extra Load) — built to handle higher inflation pressures and heavier loads than a standard-load tire of the same size.

What these tire specs mean

  • Load index 97 means each tire can carry up to 730 kg. Check your door jamb placard — the tire needs to meet or beat the load rating your manufacturer specifies.
  • Speed rating Y is the maximum sustained speed this tire is designed to handle under proper conditions. That works out to 300 km/h under correct load and inflation — not a target, just the rated ceiling.
  • UTQG 700 A A is a manufacturer-assigned grade for treadwear, traction, and temperature performance. Useful for comparing within the same brand — but it’s not a mileage guarantee, and ratings aren’t standardized across manufacturers.
  • Winter tires use a softer compound that stays pliable in cold temperatures, where all-season rubber starts to harden. They carry the 3PMS symbol and meet Quebec’s winter tire mandate.
  • XL means Extra Load. These tires run at higher inflation pressures and handle more weight than a standard-load tire of the same size. If your vehicle’s factory spec calls for XL, that’s what you need — swapping to standard load can affect ride, handling, and safety.
  • 3PMS stands for Three Peak Mountain Snowflake — a symbol earned by meeting specific severe snow traction standards in testing. It is the mark Quebec requires for winter tire compliance.
  • Vehicle type indicates the service category this tire is built for — passenger car, light truck, commercial, or other. Matching the right category matters for load capacity, handling, and safety.
  • Warranty coverage is backed by the manufacturer and applies under normal use — regular rotations, correct inflation, and proper alignment. Keep maintenance records if you ever need to make a claim.

About the 245/40R18 tire size
