Tires Pirelli or OEM Chevrolet

He got rid of the summers and replaced with some high-quality performance all-seasons (Pirelli PZero a/s3). The way the winter climate is going on the East coast, the logic for doing that (instead of proper summers and winters) is becoming a lot more compelling. So, nothing suspicious about that.

I'm using the Pirelli Cinturato Velo TLR, in 32mm, because it was top rated for puncture resistance in a tubeless tire. It's not as fast as the Conti GP 5000 S TR, and it may even cost more, but if you're looking for puncture resistance above all else, you should consider them.

Go for Pirelli if you want more durability, Longevity and easier mounting if tubeless.

I ride on Pirellli road 25c tires for years. I had finally replaced them last year. They ride nice and had good traction. I don't think the Conti is worth the money. They seem wear quicker.

I’ve been happy with the Pirelli’s easy to mount and good puncture protection while feeling fast.

I run the pirellis p zero 4s and love them comfortable and roll really well.

Opposite datapoint: I run Pirelli Race TL Rs 700x30s on my Gen 7 Madone (tubeless FWIW). Way more comfy than the OE 25s (R3) and faster.

The pirelli's came standard on my street triple when I bought it and their short lifespan pissed me off as a daily commuter. Excellent dry grip, bad wet grip.

I was just struggling with a set of these the other day, they are 28mm and my rims are actually hooked at 22mm internal, so nothing too crazy. I barely managed to get 1 bead on, so I knew the second one would be a pain lol. It took a lot of convincing to get them on.

No point going for the TO (Tesla original) models with a bit of foam in them, they claim this will reduce road noise but this really makes no differemce. If you want a quieter ride install some sound deadener pads.
