Tires Pirelli or NITTO

At 35,000 miles, I replaced the stock Dunlop tires on my 2023 Rav4 SE Hybrid with Pirelli Scorpion AS+3. Early days here, but after 500+ miles, the road noise is drastically improved. No apparent change in gas mileage. Could even be slightly better.

I’ve winter-driven my F82 a couple seasons now, and the SottoZero 3s are honestly solid they’re not as ice-grippy as the Michelin Alpin 4s you ran, but they hook well enough in packed snow and feel way more stable than you’d expect on a big-power RWD car. The only thing I noticed is the Bridgestones feel a bit firmer on cold pavement, but nothing crazy.

I have the Pirelli CInturato SF3 on two of my cars and the Michelin Cross Climate 2 on one of them, and the better tire by far is the Pirelli. On dry roads the Pirelli works better, it does it's job very well at any speed. Where the Pirellis really shine though is in the rain. They work very very well, I have not felt any aquaplaning, and they really work surprisingly better than any tires I have had before.

I’ve been running the Pirelli Scorpion AS3s for about 15k miles and they’ve been great. Live in New England and they handle all seasons beautifully. They run smooth, quiet and they fit the racy feel of the CX5. Tread is also holding up very well.

I took my FWD hybrid through a lot of western Carolina roads during hurricane Helene on the stock scorpions and had no issues and never got stuck but saw a few jeeps get stuck on stuff I had no problem hopping over.

Taca Michelin, n\u00e3o tem erro. Pirelli \u00e9 muito duro n\u00e3o passa confian\u00e7a na chuva, principalmente em rua de cal\u00e7amento

Scorps in the winter are fine, not great, and terrible at anything backcountry related that isn’t dry.

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

our stock Pirelli’s got damage and worn very early and set had to be replaced at 11k. Not pleased

I had some Nitto 305 width’s on mine briefly after buying some secondhand rims that had them equipped, and it looked great but the ride was horrible and noisy.
