Tires Pirelli or DUNLOP
Put the Pirellis on my 2018 CX5 last year and they feel better than the stock Toyos. Went with them over the cross climate bc I live in SoCal where it’s mostly sunny and definitely no snow. I feel like it’s quieter too and they’ve been holding up well, I commute about 40 miles per day.
Replaced my Dunlop after 20k with PIRELLI SCORPION WEATHERACTIVE. Highly rated on tire rack for RAV4s
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.
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.
They are not a bad tire. There are better options but these will do well in most driving conditions.
I say keep unless you are drowning in money.
Pirelli PZeros came stock on my Mustang GT and they were awful. They used to break loose all the time, I thought about trading the car in the first year because it handled like shit. Then I found a screaming deal on a set of Michelin Pilot Sports so I swapped them at 9000 miles. Night and day difference, it’s like a different car now.
Around here they dry rot like crazy. Also the people we installed them for complained of ride quality issues and noise. The ones we sold the most was the Cinturno Scorpion and the PZero and most people who bought them switched to either Michelin or Continental because of price and warranty.
Idk I got rid of em at 15k cuz they’re annoying. Still had life. Just insane road noise
