Tires Pirelli or Continental

The closest you’re going to get to snow tire performance without an actually snow tire is going to be something in the all weather segment. It’ll be like the crossclimate 2, WRG5 or Pirelli weatheractive.

I'm on GP 4 seasons and they've been great for 7000km and counting. I really should have bought them again. They're a bit worn but they can still hang on for a few more months.

No way. They are far too expensive for commuting duties. I commuted 8000km this year which would have required an expensive tire change just over halfway through (I get about 5-6000km out of the GP5000s I run on my road bike). The Contact Urbans I use instead for commuting aren't *that* much slower, but they're *far* more durable (over 11,000km on my current set and still going strong) and *much* cheaper to boot.

I keep buying the Pirelli Scorpion from Discount Tire bc they're great. Live in CO, so some snow.

I have the Pirelli on my 20 hybrid. I like them

I ride the GP 4 Season 700x28 in urban Memphis, TN, US with tons of glass, potholes, and debris. I find them to be the "sweet spot" balance of puncture/rolling resistance. They don't feel quite as quick as GP5000s to me but far far better than gatorskins, or armadillos, or other "tough" tires.

I have 24k miles on my LE R1T and it’s predominantly a family hauler, pavement princess, whatever other term you want to use to say 23.5k of those miles have been on pavement. When I first got the truck it was sooooo quiet. But I recently drove my wife’s GLE63s (not a quiet car) and I was floored by how quiet the cabin was!! The noise of these Pirelli Scorpions slowly crept up on me. I didn’t appreciate how bad it had become until I spent time in a different car. It took me almost 4yrs and 24k miles to get to the point of complaint, so I’m not opposed to buying the same thing again.

My AWD Volvo sedan came with Pirelli All Season tires. Even have the official VO on the sidewall : made just for Volvo.

Pirellie tires are fun to drive if you want to drive hard and don't care about it being a harsh ride. But, they cost much more and last significantly less miles than other brands. Think 50% or less of their advertised mileage before they become too rough to use.

I previously had on the coveted Conti DWS 06+ and they sucked. Here’s what I did not like about them. The continental did not have the extra little bead around the rim to protect it. The front tires always look like they were under inflated, even though they were at the correct pressure and there was always a ring of dirt around the sidewalk where it looked like it was basically running on the side sidewalk half the time through turns with the flexing. The continental tires only lasted about 22,000 miles.
