i just replaced the stock tires with pirelli a/s whatevers on mine and i was Shocked at how much quieter it is. before on the freeway i had the volume at 30-35 but now 20-24 feels like an equivalent volume
I run Pirelli winters on my Mk8 in Canada and they are fantastic.
Years ago they cross-threaded several of my bolts with an air wrench. Recently I tried them again however as they had better pricing than any other shop in town. Got a great deal on some Toyos. They did good work - no issues since.
My favourites are actually a Toyo that incorporates walnut shells into the rubber. I know it sounds ridiculous but having compared and tried a few, including the blizzaks, they were noticeably better in all winter conditions than anything else. For context, mine were put on a Sonata and I called them squid pelts because of the grip they provided.
I'm running the Pirelli AS+3 at 225 40 r18. A noticeably quieter tire coming from the stock Michelin Pilot Sport 4. Feeling wise they're definitely all season tires, in that they feel less precise (don't feel initial turn in as much as with the summer tires). However, for daily traction and occasional goofing off they're good.
I've run the Toyo GSi 6 HP for a while and it's been really good, I would prefer maybe a bit more ice traction at intersections polished by idiots flooring it and turning it into a skating rink.
Just bought a set of 35x12.50R20 Toyo AT3’s so I guess we will see how they hold up as far as longevity goes!
Pirelli tires are not perfect. But at least gives better and consistent feeling on the front according to the riders. But their compounds tend to wear more compared to michelin.
I’ve replaced at least 7 Pirelli’s in 4 years on my 540. They bubble at the slightest hit. Some of them bubbled after two weeks. I know the roads are not the greatest here in Long Island, but come on. Never again.
J'ai toujours senti qu'il n'était aucunement performant sous la pluie et après seulement 16 000km, le 1er changement d'huile de mon Toyota Prime, les 2 pneus avant étaient fini à 4/32.
