Tires Pirelli or Cooper
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%.
I got mine with the pirelli summers which are great.
after looking online to see what the best bang for the buck *appears* to be, the Cooper Discoverer All-Terrain for $114/each is a pretty bangin' deal. I haven't loved Cooper's wet traction historically but they've made big strides in the past few years about catching up with that.
- Pirelli P7: Currently at 6/32" (~50%) after 10k miles
Not the answer to your question, but I just wanted to add that when I got snow tires (Pirelli Sotozero- avoid them) I also got a set of closeout 18" wheels. Having the extra sidewall when you hit potholes and/ or ice chunks helps save the rims.
F1 tires make me so angry this season. In at least 50% of the races they are waaay too durable, like you could do a 0-stop race. Because Pirelli are a bunch of cowards who are scared to death of races with 2 or more stops
