Tires Pirelli or SUMITOMO

Not because of F1, but when I bought full winter rims/tires I had Scorpion Ice & Snow for my X5M. They worked very well actually, and with the combination of the vehicle and those tires I never had any issues in the snow

I have a set, they are pretty good. for a 320 TW tire, the grip is awesome, and should last a lot longer than the OEM Pirellis. These tires are much better at the track (turning) not so much at the quarter.

Today I was able to return the Bridgestone Alenzas and have a different shop set me up with Pirelli Scorpion Verde 235/55/R18 All Season Plus tires and..... AWESOME. These tires are big feeling and grippy, quiet at highway speeds, AND the car is so much more responsive. I can;t compare to tires that I have not tried on this car, but these are a major upgrade from the Continentals that came stock and a very awesome place to be.

Noticable noise and handling difference after I switched them to Prirelli Cinturato P7 A/S+.

running 40psi, when i go to the track, i keep it at about 38 and check and let out hot air as i go each lap, ill go from 35 to 50*f after a few laps so i always am messing with air. 205/40ZR-17 SUMITOMO HTR Z II 17x8 Axis OG Europa SDC

I got some $50 Sumitomos on Tirerack for my current beater because I couldn't be bothered to spend more money on this car. Nevertheless, they have not failed me in the wet, snow or sleet.

My clear favourite for our winter is the Pirelli Sottozero 3. It drives exactly like a real summer tire in the dry but is still excellent in the snow.

Bought 2012 TDI sport with 18" wheels new at dealer 2 months ago. Vehicle sat on dealer lot for 5 months or so. Test drove vehicle, steering wheel shook enough to see it at any speed over 50 mph. THIS was probably from flat spots on tires from sitting, we bought vehicle and dealer agreed to put new tires on and replaced with exact same Pirelli's that vehicle was equipped with.

Yep they are an outdated tire. I hated them on my 2012 Mustang GT.

I have these tires and despise them. Noisiest new tire I've had in at least a decade.
