Tires Pirelli or Falken
I replaced the OE tires on my 2017 Limited with Pirelli Scorpion AS +3s, big improvement.
Right now I'm getting by this crazy amount of snow, ice, and low temperatures with the stock perelli p-zero all seasons. I thought they would be bad but they are some of the better all seasons I have had in the snow. Although I find them to be quite lackluster in the dry and wet, so it makes more sense.
I’ve got Pirelli Sotto Zero snow tires. Rated comparably to Blizzaks. Do fantastic in snow; we had a foot in NE Ohio and I was silly enough to go out during it. Was fine.
Switched to Pirelli Angel GT\u2019s and love them. Great grip, long lasting and warm up quickly even in cold weather.
having come from three sets of PS4’s in a row on a track-prepped IS-F, I’ve loved the stock PZero’s. Great feel, turn in, and they’ve been pretty quiet. Hell, they even got me around Austin in the snow and ice the last 2 days. Very impressed, especially considering it’s a “summer” tire.
Looks like I’ll get about 20k out of them too, not as bad as folks have warned.
That all said, they sure are pricey!!
I've got the pzero race 4s and they're great. From the reviews I read they have great grip but lose a few watts of rolling vs the pure race versions. Still very fast though. Plus they installed super easily. I'd buy them again for sure.
Shitty pirellis, cinturato, and I'm mostly fine.
I’m using Falken Azenis. I was planning on Michelin pilot sports, but tariffs added almost $200 per tire so I went with Falkens from the stock Pirelli P Zeros.
What I’ve noticed:
Steering feel is noticeably worse. I noticed instantly. Honestly that doesn’t matter with a muscle car, but I liked the direct feel and confidence of the pirellis.
However, the new ride is nicer. Ride is slightly more comfortable, which for a daily driver is a valid trade off. Ride went from 4/10 to a 5/10 in comfort.
If the Pirellis grip at normal temperatures is an 8/10 the falkens are maybe 6.9/10. I’ve only had them for 200 miles so far though.
My pirellis needed to be replaced after 8k miles on the street. The falkens should last 30-40k miles. Oh and the pirellis turned in to glass below 50 Fahrenheit since they’re summer tires. I’m definitely going to try Michelins next, no matter the price, but I’m not upset at cheaping out ($320 a tire) this time.
run as fast as you can from the Falken tires. mine were absolute shit
I’m a little disappointed in the Mav (FWD hybrid) snow performance. Even got real nice Falken Wildpeak AT3 all-terrains in August since the factory continentals were dogshit. It gets by alright enough but still slips on acceleration. A lot.
