Tires Pirelli or Cooper

Between the two, Cooper is a well known brand that I've seen on every tire website and in every tire shop I've visited. Go with the Coopers, they're tried and tested and you can at least know they won't randomly blow out or have dangerously low grip.

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.

I used to have that on my F150 and I fell in love with them. I didn't feel water on the road and they were good in mud and gravel. They were also fairly quiet. I love the fact that they're rated for winter use, so in Quebec where I'm from, I don't have to worry about a late tire change, but I would still not use them as a regular winter tire because they absolutely suck on ice. They're okay in snow.

If you want fast and durable, Look at Pirelli Cinturato Velo.

The new UHP tires on the block: Pirelli P Zero AS Plus 3.

Tire rack as well as Tyre reviews put themselves above the DWS06.

PS4 AS FTW. 166k miles on my GLI (bought it new) and after couple sets of Pirelli Cinturato P7s… it’s a brand new car again. Unbelievable.

These days I prefer the Cooper Discoverer Enduramax. Sturdier construction for rough roads, better in rain and snow in my experience, and bit nicer ride. They’re stiff enough for good handling but still absorb bumps well. At first they were a bit noisy on rougher surfaced roads, but certainty not obnoxiously so. Seemed to get quieter after some wear. Fuel economy stayed the same as the OEM tires but much better traction.

I just replaced my pirellis after 19k. Hope the michelins hold up as long or longer.

Just bought 4 new cooper pro control tires. Been driving for a week and they are a bit loud and have a slight shake or vibration. Already took the car in to double check balance and they said it is fine. I am still getting the vibration.

My 21 R-Line came stock with Pirelli Scorpions. I hated them. Two back tires blew out. They road rough and felt every bump. Atlas suspension is rough enough.
