Tires Pirelli or Continental

Continental contact urban in 2” or 2.2” Feels as fast as my race king black chili for half the price

Continental double fighters have been doing me good for nearly a year! Like 1.9 inch tires and have a good amount of grip but roll nice too

Continental race kings. The black chili blend is faster. 1.9 and 2.2 inch options. Fantastic tires

Continental contact speed is a cool looking cheap option.

I've seen similar sentiments online about Pirelli that didn't really match my experience. Most of my favorite driving sets of tires have been Pirellis. Not necessarily best by the numbers, but by how they felt on some of my more communicative cars on the road.

Depends on the model. I’ve had some great experience with Pirelli Scorpions and the P Zero. Usually not my brand of choice but if nothing is available and they are I’ll run them. Definitely more of a Michelin PS2/C type for my sport cars though. I’m about 3k miles into a set of PZero 21” on my LR Discovery. They handle the weight of the vehicle and road conditions really nice, so far have no complaints.

Honestly have no idea why anyone hates them but after giving up my OEM Yokohama Geolander for Michelin Defender 2's that had a weird vibration on the highway that the tire shop insisted wasn't from a bad balance, I returned those and got the Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3's. They ride MUCH better than the Defenders, which were one of the highest rated tires everywhere, and there is no weird vibe on the highway. My 22 CX-5 never rode so good.

I’ve had Scorpions on my car for ten years by now. When I had Michelins and Bridgestones they did not drive nearly as smoothly

I've owned both. The only advantage to the Pirelli is that they are a little more comfortable. The Michelins are better in every other way.

The tires are rated at 1 on the tire toughness scale. I forget what it’s called but they are super fragile, garbage tires. They also wear hilariously fast and handle poorly.
