Tires Pirelli or WEST LAKE

I personally love the Pirelli Scorpion AS 3 tires. Great overall performance and a 70k mile warranty. I’ve put them (and the AS 2) on 2 of my trucks (07 F150 King Ranch and 20 RAM 1500 Limited) , Chevy Cruze LTZ and Equinox LT AWD.

I found 50mm Pirelli Cinturato H to be pretty fastastic.

The closest you’re going to get to snow tire performance without an actually snow tire is going to be something in the all weather segment. It’ll be like the crossclimate 2, WRG5 or Pirelli weatheractive.

I keep buying the Pirelli Scorpion from Discount Tire bc they're great. Live in CO, so some snow.

I have the Pirelli on my 20 hybrid. I like them

Tbf to Pirelli, after Silverstone 2013 they’re scared shitless for another debacle

Had some Pirellis on a former car. Ok ride but didn't last near as long as they were rated.

Pirellie tires are fun to drive if you want to drive hard and don't care about it being a harsh ride. But, they cost much more and last significantly less miles than other brands. Think 50% or less of their advertised mileage before they become too rough to use.

My new GTI has p-zero all seasons and they suck. So much slop, understeer, and it's really hard to put the power down.

I have had experiences with many tires models on CX-5, my shop basically agreed Scorpion has to be one of the worst tires to recommend to customer for all the reasons you mentioned. These tires has worse road feel than even Westlakes
