Tires Pirelli or Goodyear

Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3. I did a review on them recently. Best tire I’ve had.

I have those Pirellis and have been very happy with them.

I put a little over 50K on my Dunlops before replacing them a few weeks back and got Pirelli Scorpion AS/Plus 3. I do a lot of long-distance driving though, so maintaining range was important to me.

I have the Scorpions and love them. I choose them because of the lower ride noise and think they look nicer on the car than the CC2s.

Pirelli scorpion AS/3. Quieter, softer and better handling than original shit Toyo’s. Source: 5k miles on them so far.

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

Perfomance degrades very noticably with age, at least I noticed that with my GoodYear winter tyres. First winter they were amazing, second wintee you could feel the drop-off but still good and during third winter it was significantly worse, to the point It would be worth to get a new set even though thread depth was still ok.

I have had experiences with many tires models on CX-5, my shop basically agreed Scorpion has to be one of the worst tires to recommend to customer for all the reasons you mentioned. These tires has worse road feel than even Westlakes

My initial PZeros have a tire bulge at 13k. I think they were 80% down anyhow.

The only thing I didn't put right was I bought good year tires and I'm regretting it. After my engine rebuild, the cheap tires are just too easy to spin in the rain.
