Tires Pirelli or Nokia

225/55/17 are nokian entyre 2.0 which are "grand touring" all seasons i think they are more for cruising and comfort than sport and grip. Sadly they don't make them anymore (thanks Putin's war) and I'm about down to the 2/32 wear bars, I'll have to source another grand touring all season, i got about 40-50K out of them no complaints other than they got a bit loud in the past 10-15k.

Pirelli run flats for the win I’ve absolutely sent it with these tires and they grip amazingly

We had two incidents on the freeway where a nail punctured the tires and had to buy new tires and went with Pirelli. After switching the tires we noticed a huge improvement in handling and noise. Toyo tires are very loud when driving especially on the freeway.

I finally bit the bullet and bought Pirelli Scorpion after 37k miles on Toyos.

The difference in ride quality, noise and turning is insanely different. When driving, it felt confusingly smooth and my god when turning, it felt like I was legit gliding. I had insane grip on turns whereas I'd have to tone it down when on stock tires because the grip was always suspect to me.

The inside cabin noise has decreased dramatically for me as well.

From Bridgestone Turanza Eco to Pirelli Scorpion Elects [EU].

Couldnt be happier with the switch. Just a tiny bit more noisy then the turanza, but on the grip and feedback its miles better.

Never leave home w/o snows in the winter. Pirelli winter sottozero.

For my SE in PNW:

~April until ~October: Stock 16” victory + stock hankooks. Great range and fine in spring/summer. No complaints until it gets cold.

~October until ~April: A second “refurbished” set of 16” victory spoke + nokian wr g4. Not enough winter for proper winter tires. They are great when it’s cold and wet, did fine in slushy melting soft ice. When the weather is nice these are way too noisy and reduced range is noticeable.

I have two sets of wheel and one set has Nokian Hakkapeliittas on them. Run them from about Nov 1 to Apr 1. And it’s really fun on snow days to be the only small car among a crowd of pickups and SUVs.

Not the same tire or bike at all but let me go walk around into the garage and check what my pirelli Diablo angel gt 2 [a spec] on my 2011 zx6r look like. Been riding alot lately, these tires are now on their 4th riding season and just over 5k miles on them. EDIT: yeah man I'm not an expert but I'd say my tires have seen more wear and significantly more time, and by comparison they look great and yours look pretty fucked ngl

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?
