Pirelli warranty for tires
The short version
Pirelli covers tires in full for 1 year, then keeps whole tire (prorated) covered to 6 years. That full coverage is the same as most of the 12 brands we compared, which typically cover 1 year in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Pirelli's published warranty, checked October 2026.

The fine print, decoded
What it leaves out
- Noise
- Normal wear and tear
Good to know before you buy
- Covers the first buyer only. Keep your sales receipt; it sets the start date.
- Claims go through an authorized Pirelli dealer, who sends the tire to Pirelli for inspection.
- Mileage coverage needs a rotation record (every 5,000 to 7,000 miles).
- Select lines bought as a set of four can be swapped within 60 days if you're not happy.
