Tires Pirelli or NANKANG

Just swapped my OEM Bridgestones on my 21MY for Pirelli scorpions. Seems to be a quieter and smoother tire. I think I could have gotten maybe another 5k out of them. Haven’t been far but truly like them.

I’m only 2200 miles in on the Pirelli Scorpions but I really do love these tires. They seem super soft and grippy so, that makes me think that they will wear quicker.

I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the Pirellis. We’ve got 13,500 miles on them since November. All four tires were at 7/32 when we crossed 10,000 miles.

One of my Pirelli P zero non-runflat tires hit a nail couple weeks ago. The tire shop also told me it was not fixable. I fixed it using the Slime tire plug kit for $10. Running fine for a few months already.

Avoid budget tyres but mid range tyres like Nankang etc would be more than enough on a C1.

I've also replaced the worn original tires with Pirellis that I keep fully inflated, much smoother quieter ride than It got with the original tires and maybe getting a little better with the new tires.

I have personally used the Pirelli Cinturato P7s on 3 cars and they are very good tires, and lasted at least 40k miles before I sold the vehicle. And if it does happen to snow, you'll be covered, too

Have a buddy that owns a tire shop and ran these for a a few years to put his money where his mouth was since he was recommending them to his customers. He said they were no Michelins, but were well worth the price. Seemed to hold up pretty well and his only real complaint was noise. Moreso as they got on in age, but otherwise, he thought they were better than decent. :thumbup:

Not sure about the Vredesteins, but I will say that I hate Pirellis. No issues with wear or performance, but they are unbelievably noisy after about 20k miles. I probably could have gotten another 10k out of them, but replaced them due to the noise.

Pirelli: hey, our tyres are about 8 years out of date, we really need to try new stuff

All of F1: Ok, we'll test them for you.

Post-test: WE HATE THESE TYRES, WHY CAN'T WE JUST KEEP THE OLD ONES?
