Tires Pirelli or FEDERAL
I purchased Federal Xplora RT tires and they are the best tires I've ever had. I got them three years ago and I have over 40k on them and they are barely warn. They are literally 100k tires. Wet traction and hydroplane resistance are excellent. I did a little bit of snow and they did well there too.
P-Zeros are probably a bit softer and won’t give you as much life but better grip…
I just bought these myself. So far so good.
Just swapped my OEM Bridgestones on my 21MY for Pirelli scorpions. Seems to be a quieter and smoother tire. I think I could have gotten maybe another 5k out of them. Haven’t been far but truly like them.
I’m only 2200 miles in on the Pirelli Scorpions but I really do love these tires. They seem super soft and grippy so, that makes me think that they will wear quicker.
I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the Pirellis. We’ve got 13,500 miles on them since November. All four tires were at 7/32 when we crossed 10,000 miles.
One of my Pirelli P zero non-runflat tires hit a nail couple weeks ago. The tire shop also told me it was not fixable. I fixed it using the Slime tire plug kit for $10. Running fine for a few months already.
Unless these were going to be specific track tires, I would not go with the Federal RS-RR's. I use them as my track tires and they're great for that, but they're a very loud tire. I got a flat on my daily set and waiting on the shipment and to mount and balance so I've been using the Federal's for my day to day driving and after 30mph, it's so loud in my car. Every passenger I've had always ask what the humming sound is and now I just joke it's my exhaust drone
I have 13k miles on mine and am down to the yellow replace tires soon line on my tread depth measurer.
I’ve ran them for autox for fun when I had bmw Z4. They aren’t that good. Lol. Decent daily tires though.
