Tires Pirelli or OEM Audi

I have Pirelli Scorpions All Season tires on my car. They have done well in CT snow for the last 3 years so I just got a new set.

If you don’t have much snow I would recommend Pirelli Cinturati All-season SF3. They are brilliant.

Always been a fan of the Pirelli Scorpion A/Ts, they perform better in the rain IMO. While I know you may be thinking, \u201cbuddy I\u2019m not riding in the rain\u201d, you will be hitting little creeks or riding on wet grass every so often.

I fitted the same tires this summer on my Audi A5. UK, Essex. Very pleased with them for now, done about 3000 mls on them. My only concern about this tires is life expectancy.

I've tested them on track at 30c. Not ideal but they're not going to pop.

They'll be fine at -10c too, we're usually testing below that.

I used to have Pirelli Scorpion tires for a different SUV and those things wear out soo fast because they’re meant for handling and have a very shallow tread

Switched them over to Pirelli AS3 and now I understand! What I gained in grip I gave up in harshness.

The Verdes came stock on my xc90 and they were terrible in inclement weather. It was a total game changer in the rain and snow once I upgraded to the Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3 based on a recommendation from a friend.

They are pretty mid and suck in snow. I had a loaner XC60 this weekend and took it up into the mountains and it felt downright dangerous.

Anything Pirelli, nothing but hot ass garbage, I’ll run $40 Douglas tires before Pirellis.
