Tires Hankook or Pirelli

I use 165/80 r15 hankook summer tires and they are excellent, both wet and dry grip.

I quickly switched to Pirelli P-Zero Nero all season tires and the different was night and day. Much better grip and stopping ability.....and I once took the car through about a foot of unplowed snow and didn't loose grip.

+1 on the Pirelli Elect. Went to 18s for my M3P and the tire is super comfortable, quiet, and naturally more efficient.

Replaced with Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3. So much better! Smoother and firmer

Needed to replace tires, got Pirelli P7 Plus 3, 225 / 45 R18. Anyone is looking for a quieter ride, I'm really pleased with these tires. Road noise significantly reduced from the Vredestein Quadtrack Pro that came on the car. Very happy with corning, road holding, rain.

Back to the actual tires, so far my completely subjective take is that they are indeed quieter and smoother than the factory Bridgestone Alenzas.

The P Zero All-Season may be your best bet if you're set on all-seasons. They were fine when I had one of the previous scorpion AS iterations on my E53, seemed to be a good value.

Only other thing I'm seeing available is discount tire with a Nitto NT420V. I'd take the Pirelli over that.

Nah I had some crazy high mileage rated pirellis on my mazda and didn't find them to last any longer than other brands 60k tires. Just my experience.

Pirelli cinturatos are garbage. Insanely overpriced for how they perform.

pirellis are only realky good for grip i see them alot on the track but i remmber i once bought pirellis and only lasted me 15k with a good alighnmet and rotation, so avoid them
