Tires Pirelli or Continental

Pirelli Tires

I'll be putting Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3s on my Ariya next month, and I'm in Wisconsin. They've got the insulation to help with road noise, the main reason I'm not doing CC2s.

Pros: insulation helps road noise
Vehicle: Nissan

I put Pirelli Scorpion WeatherActive on my '19. Love them. Wet and dry traction is amazing. 19,000mi since 11/24 and think they're the best tire I've ever bought.

Pros: wet and dry traction amazing
Mileage: 30577 km

I have the Terraincontacts. They have lasted almost 60k. I would get the Crosscontacts if I had to buy them all over though.

Pros: lasted almost 60k
Mileage: 96560 km

Rating 3.0

TerrainContacts are fine, I’ve had them and the crosscontacts as well. Mileage was ass with the terrain contacts, but they were pretty quiet and were decent in the mud. Terrible in the snow after 50% treadwear, so be aware of that.

Pros: pretty quiet, decent in mud
Cons: terrible in snow

Pirelli Tires

I run 225/40r18 Pirelli Sottozero 3. I hate the idea of trading dry and wet performance for better snow traction especially considering that I have proper UHP summer tires that need to be off the car when it’s already below freezing at night but during the day it warms up a lot. They’re not bad in the 2 recent snow storms that we’ve had, I only got stuck once but that’s because there’s was like 20+ cm in an unplowed parking lot.

Pros: not bad in snow storms
Cons: trading dry, wet performance
