Just fitted the PZero 2023 TT Race tyres. OMG. What a delight to fit. No tools needed. Straight on the rims. No need to pop them.
I have been using Pirelli PZero for a few years - TLRs 28mm on Enve Foundation 65 Hookless. Realy like them (heaps).
However the last set purchased have completely defeated me. I cannot get them onto the wheel set.
I run Pirelli Cinturato Gravel RC with CushCore inserts on hookless carbon rims. I usually run 27psi, but have done as low as 24psi. I have run these very chunky and rough courses with fast downhills. I have had no trouble.
Ive used trail kings on my old 26 hardtail for many years. I think theyre actually pretty great. The black chili rubber coumpound is good, theyre such a nice blend of grip and rolling speed. They have held up and been pretty durable as well.
My stock tires were low on tread by 30k and needed replacing - I got Pirelli Scorpion All Season Plus 3s and have been happy with them so far, including driving in freezing rain conditions last week.
Summer Tires: Pireli Scorpion AS plus 3s
* These tires are super smooth and quiet, amazing touring/highway tire.
* Good traction in wet conditions and in light snow but not as good in deep snow as the CC2s.
I run Continental TrueContact 225/70/16 now. They are stickier than the Michelins, especially in wet conditions, and I regularly get 26+ mpg in my E.
I'm.running Conti DWS06 235/40 on all 4 corners. I looked hard at the Michelin Pilot Sports, watched a few comparison videos. Both are very similar in performance with the Michelins slightly better overall.The Contis have a slight edge in the snow.
I have had the best luck w/ Michelin Pilot Sports or Super sports. I have had several sets of the Continental Sport Contacts on different cars including the Golf R and they seem to wear out early with noise and balance problems sooner than I would expect. I have never had a set last more than 20K miles before the tread was gone and/or they start having noise/balance issues. They are GREAT tires up until that point, but they don't last anywhere near their published treadlife rating.
One of my Continentals lost pressure suddenly and rapidly driving down the interstate last week. I've never gotten a decent lifespan from Continental or been happy with their performance.
