In this article we will be looking at independent tyre test data, and real world driver reviews of the Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2 and the Pirelli Cinturato P7 C2 to find out which tyre is best for your own driving.
The good news is that both the Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2 and Pirelli Cinturato P7 C2 are Premium Touring Summer tyres designed to be fitted to Passenger Cars, which means comparing the two tyres is relatively simple.
Both tyres are hugely popular in the market place with drivers, and both have been featured in independent tyre tests.
Independent comparison tyre tests are the best source of data to get tyre information from, and the good news is there have been thirteen tests which compare both tyres directly!
Out of these thirteen tests:
The Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2 and Pirelli Cinturato P7 C2 have an equal number of test wins. However, tyres are very complicated objects which means where one tyre is better than the other can be more important in real world use.
Let's look at how the two tyres compare across multiple tyre test categories.
Looking at data from eleven tyre tests, the Pirelli Cinturato P7 C2 was better during ten dry braking tests. On average the Pirelli Cinturato P7 C2 stopped the vehicle in 2.05% less distance than the Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2.

Remember, the best tyre for you might depend on which of these factors are most important for your specific driving needs and conditions.
Overall Winner: Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2
This page has been developed using tyre industry testing best practices. This means we are only comparing tests which have had both tyres in the same test.
Why is this important? Tyre testing is heavily affected by things like surface grip levels and surface temperature, which means you can only compare values from the same day. During a tyre test external condition changes are calculated into the overall results, but it is not possible to calculate this between tyre tests performed on different days or at different locations.
As a result you will see other tests on Tyre Reviews which feature both the %s and %s, but as they weren't conducted on the same day, the results are not comparable.
Lots of other websites do this sort of tyre comparison, Tyre Reviews doesn't.
