Tires Pirelli or DEXTER
I love my PZero TLR Road tires. I also have tried the Specialized S-Works Mondo's. I can buy them cheap, but I opted to buy another set of the Pirelli's.
I’m running the pirellis. Fantastic tire, they are a new all season tire and are pretty much the same as the contis. Pirellis has multiple different types of all seasons that are genuinely pretty bad but these ones are really good. Quiet, comfortable and can grip the road so very well. I was hesitant when I was buying them as I was looking at the contis since it’s been on the market much longer but I’m really happy I went with the pirellis. Either way you cannot go wrong.
For reference I’m running this on a built golf r pushing over 4xx hp and they are fantastic, they feel much better than the indy500’s I was running before and they feel identical to the dws cars I’ve been in.
Tire store employees say Conti is best overall. I have the Pirellis and hard to imagine a quiter, smoother, UHP all season.
For 7k you should be able to find pretty good tyres for your Volvo. I looked around a bit this year and found last years NAF test winner for under 10k for a bigger dimension for my car, including mounting on rims. Look for the ones from NAF tyre test just under the winner, like the Pirellis that scored okay but not great are within your price range, at least here in Norway, and way safer than these unknown China tyres.
I run the Pirelli on my B9.5 S4 and no complains so far, heading into first full winter together so I'll see how it goes.
I like Pirelli ice zero fr, they have the best grip, Bridgestone also fine
Pirelli tires are not perfect. But at least gives better and consistent feeling on the front according to the riders. But their compounds tend to wear more compared to michelin.
My last car was a bmw M4 and it came with Pirelli p zeros. They were great in warm dry conditions but not great in the rain. They are summer tires so no grip at all under 40 degrees. They only lasted 12000 miles before they were under 4/32.
For example, my mercedes came with the worst runftlat tires from Pirelli. Those run flats felt like shit after 10k miles. Unusable and felt dangerous at 14k. Replaced at 15k when costco had proper non runflat tires from Michelin.
I wouldn’t own take pirelli scorpions if someone paid me … they were horrible for me , in 2 inches of snow absolutely horrible
