My old '94 Blazer, shod in her Pirelli Scorpions, wrap around rock bars, Vortec V-6. Unstoppable.

I use the p3's, good tire it just has a lot of road noise and not amazing in the rain

Switched to Pirelli Rosso 4 and the problem went away almost entirely.

i once rode my 40mm P Zero Race TLR on gravel all day on 15 psi and no puncture. built like a tank.

For the last few years there's been a lot of front left punctures, so they've capped the tyre stints at 25 laps on safety grounds.

I just swapped my Pirelli's (22" OEM) for winter tires.

Pirelli deserves A LOT more criticism for what they're doing. No tire should last almost the entire race distance, ever.

Absolutely hated them on a ‘26 R1S. Only lasted three weeks before I threw them in the basement and paid another $4k to swap for 20” wheels and Goodyears. The ride sucked. Very bumpy, felt every imperfection in the road, and All Purpose soft was no comfort.

The efficiency is much higher than the AT or AS options, but an average of 1.9kwh v. 2.5~kwh is worth how much better the ride is now.

Only keeping the 22” wheels in case I decide to throw some Michelins on eventually to see if it was just those Pirellis. These stock tires are getting tossed.

I will also say that when I had the SC swap wheels and tires, they found the stock Pirellis were *very* unbalanced.

It was like 36, 25, 12, 22 and the alignment was very jacked up as well. Can’t believe they signed off on that before delivery.

Do not get the P-Zeros trashhhh tire, very stiff I tried them on didn’t like em, way too much cabin noise Continentals are good, idk where you live but if you got the cheddar, go Michelin pilot sport all seasons. If you have a big o tires near your area they might be able to hook you up
