Tires Pirelli or Continental
Continental all the way. Their soft compound is objectively grippier than the MaxxGrip compound. And their super soft is wizard demon magic that grips like no ones buisness but is suprisingly long wearing.
I got my new tires installed at Discount Tire, which I had no issues with, and probably would recommend. (I got Pirelli P7 All Season Plus 3’s, and really like them, fwiw).
I’m using pirelli angel scooter, never tried the city grip.
But the pirelli is best seller here compare to city grip. Asia.
I disagree, Pirelli Diablo Rosso Scooter are the best and they have a really nice sporty tread pattern that would be more at home on a sports bike.
My pirelli tires have almost 10000 kilometers since I put them on with a lot of thread left still, while the city grips in used to roll died at around 7-8000 kilometers with the wire spots showing early.
I just replaced the MXM4s on my SR+ after 42,000 miles with the Pirelli P Zero AS Plus Elect and have a whole 25 miles on them. Noticeably smoother ride and quieter.
I went through this exact debate 6 months ago, and I got the Pirellis. They are similarly quiet to the Michelins (at least as best as I can tell). Grip is good, better than the Michelins for sure. Efficiency seems to be very close... I'm certainly within 5%.
Conti Sport Contact Force tires. The absolute best summer tire. The testers are right, it's almost telepathic. 40 mpg on long trips.
Getting back to reliability, the one thing that all the forums agree on is that the OEM Continental ProContact TX 245/35R20 on the SEL-P R-Line is vulnerable to just about anything.
Pirelli: hey, our tyres are about 8 years out of date, we really need to try new stuff
All of F1: Ok, we'll test them for you.
Post-test: WE HATE THESE TYRES, WHY CAN'T WE JUST KEEP THE OLD ONES?
