Tires Pirelli or SUMITOMO

So a few weeks back I opted for Pirelli's P7 tires in lieu of the OEM. I wanted some more traction for dry and wet weather. With OEM tires I was usually between 4.6 kW and 4.4 kW depending on streets or freeway, now I'm about 4.4 kW on streets and 4.2 kW. And there is better traction and control. They are also more comfortable to ride on and quieter too. These tires are 100% worth it.

I swear by Sumitomo Ice Edge tires. I've had three sets now on three different vehicles and other than a couple of nights when there was freezing rain, I've never had issues with them

Went with the **Pirelli P7 All Season Plus 3** tires. Reasons were simple. Cheaper than OEM, better grip in wet and dry, quieter and not too big a hit on economy.

After a few hundred miles of mixed highway and city driving, I can say they are better in every way. The best part is the quiet nature of the tires. Softer hum on the highway, barely noticeable on the streets.

Overall, extremely happy with the tires.

Tires: Pirelli $1.1k. Car is just perfect and I love it! So far I haven’t found any issues with this car.

I was thinking about throw in the 195 on the front end the front end buying a pair of Pirelli P-Zero PZ4 (215/45/20) on the rear wheels.

I run an pirelli mt21 on the front because it's about the same aggressiveness on the tread, but has a softer rubber, so I can use the front brake with a little more confidence on-road.

I’ve been running pirelli P7’s for many years. B5 Passats, A4 and the tt’s.

I don't know what everyone else is doing but I'm coming up on 25K on my 2014 with 255/19 p-zeros. The fronts are 70%... not even close to giving up. The rears... well, they're about 30% but that's not the fault of the tires.

Anecdotal, but I have Perelli Scorpions on my suv and will never get Perelli again. They wore unevenly and well short or their mileage and Perelli basically gave me the finger when I contacted them about the warranty.

Pirelli tires weather crack fast.
