Tires Pirelli or Barum
I mostly have stuck with Pirelli Scorpions and have been very happy. The Pirelli Scorpion Verde model gets a bit better gas mileage and is quiet.
Am Barum Polaris 5 si mi-au placut, erau ieftine, acu 3 ani le-am luat cu 1000 toate 4 205/55/R16. Sunt moi, au sant pentru aderenta pe ploaie, dar dupa teste nu par ca exceleaza acolo, eu nu am simtit, iar pe zapada sunt excelente. Barum este sub-brand Continental si au fost facute in UE. Probabil sunt prea moi, si se consuma mai rapid, dar nu ma deranjat, oricum ma lovesc mai intai de vechime decat de cat de consumate sunt, si au tinut 3 sezoane sigur merg si al patrulea. Deasemenea se umplu de pietricele prin gauri. Not top performance, dar ok,
I had the SF3 for 1 year and 40k km. Great, great tire. Quiet, comfortable, good grip in all conditions. They still had a lot of thread (4mm) but one of the rear ones developed some cuts on the inside. The SF3 felt a little too nervous with direction change. BUT, they were so much cheaper than the CC3S that I think they are still the best.
I use the new Pirelly Cinturato Winter 3 since like a week or so - they stick well, feels comfortable and silent on the highway too (at least until like 170 km/h, that is way over the speed limit here). More silent than the Michelin summer set.
I bought that Baja from him, put new Pirellis on it , and drove it for 85k miles for work between 2013 and 2021. Those tires are still on it in my garage, though they're definitely *done*.
Ich hab aktuell die Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 drauf und bin wirklich sehr zufrieden damit. Die sind bei den Tests immer vorne dabei. Kann ich nur empfehlen.
I have been mostly happy with the OEM Pirelli Scorpion A/T tires, and I would agree with you about the acoustics. Something strange I have experienced with the Pirelli Scorpion tires is that they have continued to get quieter after my second tire rotation. Also, with 30,000 miles on them, they do not have the same grip as new, and they break free more easily under full acceleration.
Replacing mine tomorrow with Pirelli scorpion Weatheractives. Tires are fine but I need a more versatile tire for winter and I'm hoping they will help with the road noise too.
Pirelli are overpriced junk. Especially the scorpions.
Never terribly happy with the ride quality or handling with the Pirellis.
