Tires MICHELIN or Pirelli

Pirelli Tires

I'm using the Pirelli Cinturato Velo TLR, in 32mm, because it was top rated for puncture resistance in a tubeless tire. It's not as fast as the Conti GP 5000 S TR, and it may even cost more, but if you're looking for puncture resistance above all else, you should consider them.

Pros: puncture resistance
Cons: not as fast

Go for Pirelli if you want more durability, Longevity and easier mounting if tubeless.

Pros: more durability, longevity
Cons: easier mounting tubeless

I ride on Pirellli road 25c tires for years. I had finally replaced them last year. They ride nice and had good traction. I don't think the Conti is worth the money. They seem wear quicker.

Pros: ride nice, good traction
Cons: wear quicker

Opposite datapoint: I run Pirelli Race TL Rs 700x30s on my Gen 7 Madone (tubeless FWIW). Way more comfy than the OE 25s (R3) and faster.

Pros: more comfy, faster

I was actively avoiding driving with the Kinergys if rain was predicted. Hated to dump almost new tires but first rain test the other night with the Michelins and they were amazing.

Pros: they were amazing
Cons: avoiding driving if rain

I have them on my Lexus ES300h and drove with them coast-to-coast across the entirety of Canada in the dead of winter, then back again in the summer. I found them to be really great performers in winter, even in nearly tire-high snow, and I never had a moment where I was worried about slipping or sliding, even through the Rockies in white-out conditions. HOWEVER... I find them to be too noisy in the summer. I can see the fuel efficiency drop on road trips in the summer as well, and I'm not sure I'd run them year-round again knowing what I know now.

Pros: great performers in winter
Cons: too noisy in summer
Vehicle: Lexus
