Tires Pirelli or PHANTOM

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.

My opinion, Pirelli was at one time a very good brand if you were looking for a performance tire, in recent years though it seems that they have become complacent and aren't really trying to innovate and as such have become a mediocre tire company at best. But for a decent low cost tire, Kumho is a fair bet.

The current AS3 Pirelli? I'd say it's better than the AS4, which honestly wasn't great in the rain for me. I prefer PS4s to the AS4 for rain. Honestly, my Hankook RS4 aren't any worse than the AS4 in rain.

I can tell you the Pirelli have a very low durability and are not recommended if you’re not planning to spend a significant amount of time on the track.

I replaced mine at 27k miles. They were wearing very fast so it was barely early, but their snow traction is so bad i didn't want them for another winter. Awful tires.

I know this is an old thread, but I looked up this issue because I just got new tires put on the Tesla Model Y Performance. I am having a very similar issue so I thought I'd look it up. Ironically, the tires I'm having questions about are the Pirelli P Zero AS Plus 3s.
