Tires Pirelli or RIKEN

I'm in Texas and we have concrete, not asphalt. So Pirellis have been my go-to on everything I drive. Great in wet weather, resistant to hydroplaning, good in hot conditions.

The PIRELLI P ZERO AS PLUS 3 XL is on my car. They had good reviews on TireRack, and so far, they have had no issues. I have driven 2000 miles on them, which are good on dry and wet. Grips well on the mountain roads have yet to take them to the track or drive in the snow.

Pirellis are the best handling and performance tires I've owned BUT that soft rubber that grips the road so well, wears out fast.

I use these and they work. As my service advisor says, they are aggressive tires.

Buy PIRELLI ... super comfortable and very very good tires - I've been trying several in 30 years of driving and nothing come close...

Adding my experience here too: I miserably struggled with those CRAPPY Turanzas on my Turbo 3 for almost 4 years, and I finally had them swapped out for Pirelli AS+3's. As crappy as Turanzas were throughout this time (leading to multiple replacements), I'm only now realizing in comparison how utterly awful they really are!

Right off the bat, steering is so much more nimble and smooth, I probably put half as much effort into steering now. Traction is worlds better, and the car runs a lot gentler, too. Don't get me wrong, 3T is rough by nature, but now it's gliding over the same bumps and humps compared to the death shocks from Turanzas (which by the way, got exponentially worse over time). There's a lot less understeering with Pirelli's now, and interestingly, MPG shows signs of improvement as well. So, count me in love!

Living in Wisconsin, I will be swapping out the OEM summer tyres with Pirelli Sottozero 3 winters. WINTER SOTTOZERO™ 3 235/35R19 91V XL AUDI - Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3 tires are designed for maximum safety in all weather conditions.

I've had these for four summer seasons on my GSW (17" version) and about 15k miles total. Very grippy. They were great until this past summer, and generally quiet, but one developed a defect whereby it's making a loud rhythmic thumping noise at low speed.

The pirellis p zeros that came on my car are worse than my Michelin all seasons for grip.

I had Pirellis on my RS3 when I bought it, and they were absolute trash lol.
