Tires Pirelli or Continental
Replaced my Dunlop after 20k with PIRELLI SCORPION WEATHERACTIVE. Highly rated on tire rack for RAV4s
On my last RAV4 I went with Continental Cross Contact, those were great as well.
No comparison with the P Zero AS Plus 3. It’s in a completely different class than that Nexen, which is a cheap version made solely for a large distributor.
I replaced them with Continentals. I love Continentals. I’ve always had great luck with them on my Audis, which tended to chew up tires in short order.
Swapped them out at about 30K kilometers. Tread still had a lot of life but holy man were they bad tires. Slipping all over the place, rough on the road, trash quality all around. Put on Pirelli Scorpion AS plus 3s. Amazing difference - feels like im now driving the car it should have been this whole time. I love these new tires - quiet and comfortable as hell, absolutely no slipping wet or dry, and excellent cornering.
I have them on a non-turbo CX-5. I'm in San Diego, so a very different climate, and less than 10k on the tires now. But very good so far, I think quieter than the stock tires and good grip. Haven't noticed them wearing out quickly so far.
I have the Pirellis on my CX-5 and I have the Cross-Climates on another SUV. My driving is "spirited" and I haven't noticed a wear issue on either. The Pirellis corner like you're on rails, so it's a great driving experience.
Everybody's complaining that they roll like shit. I'm sorry, is this the aero weight weenie sub or the fixie sub? The solution is stronger legs!
I always ride bulletproof tires like these (usually Continental or Schwalbe) around Brooklyn, because otherwise I'd have to change a flat once a month. Waste of time and money.
The only general consensus is that Pirelli is the worst tire you could buy. I have had the worst experience with pirellis that came on a car I bought.
Perillis are JUNK! Have had them on several cars; and refuse to put them on my Range Rover.
