Tires Pirelli or BRIDGESTONE

I strongly recommend proper winter tires. At a minimum, at least get winter rated all weather tires. We had a lot of slushy bullshit build up today. The only reason I was able to get out of my neighborhood & make it to a Dr's appointment was because I run Blizzaks on my ND1.

Just spent early winter in Vermont with tons of snow and my '24 cross sport. I used snow mode just to be sure but I had no problems whatsoever. I should mention, however, that I put Pirelli Scorpion Weatheractives on mine in November 2024 for that years' Vermont trip. Those tires and the Atlas Cross Sport is definitely the best handling I have ever had in snow. I drove 600 miles across the northeast in a winter storm without fear if that helps.

I live in Hungary and i went for the Pirelli sf3 in September and so far is perfect.

I have Bridgestones in my GTI in 17s with 215/50r17 and obviously don't feel as sporty as 19s but they're great for winter.

Testing out these PIRELLI CINTURATO WEATHERACTIVE tires. I’m impressed so far. Not bad at all.

Removed mine the first day. The actual removal of the blades may leave some plastic marring from the tabs- which rubs off pretty easily. HOWEVER- the longer you leave them on- the more dirt will get between the tabs and the wheel itself; this is what scratches the wheel

You got 40,000 miles from a set of Pirelli tires? I’ve never hard good lucky with that brand.

17k miles no problems, only thing is the OEM pirellis (if you get the 22s) will only last 15-20k miles with some spicier driving.

I currently have the Pirellis on my 2022 OffRoad. Ive had em for about 35,000 miles. I cannot wait to get rid of em. They dont grip in wet or snow. They are wearing faster than they should. I have roughly 5-6/32nds left.

I had Pirelli Scorpion Zeros on my X5 and hated them. I switched to Michelin CrossClimate 2’s and it feels much more planted to the road.
