I’ve been running pirelli P7’s for many years. B5 Passats, A4 and the tt’s.
Gen 3: Ran Pirelli Angel GT and GT 2 and recently fitted a set of Road 5.
The GTs will out grip your skill level and performance of the bike in my experience. I've thrashed them on nice South African twisties and they just didn't want to let go.
Just got these same Pirelli tires on my 2016 EX-L. So far they’ve been great :)
New tires: Pirelli Cinturato Gravel H. Fit great, bead was easy to seat, sealed up right away with sealant and rode well on a shakedown ride. Hit a few spots of mud Freon recent flooding and they didn’t grip well (they’re not expected to) but they shed the mud immediately once I hit hard pack. Biggest deal is no wobbles at all!
My 2014 Passat SE w/roof came with Conti's 63,000 miles. First replacement set were Pirelli Cinturano P7 all season plus. Great tires, except in wet conditions.
I think the pirelli’s are great tires.
I recently bought a new to me truck with 285/60/20 federal couragia fx tires. So far they ride really well in dry or wet weather, warm or cold.
Feds are okay budget performance tires IMO. There's a fair bit of trade offs too. Grip isn't as good as PSS or even DWs IMO, though with the latter the difference isn't that great. Despite lower grip levels mpg was worse.
Not sure about the Vredesteins, but I will say that I hate Pirellis. No issues with wear or performance, but they are unbelievably noisy after about 20k miles. I probably could have gotten another 10k out of them, but replaced them due to the noise.
Pirelli: hey, our tyres are about 8 years out of date, we really need to try new stuff
All of F1: Ok, we'll test them for you.
Post-test: WE HATE THESE TYRES, WHY CAN'T WE JUST KEEP THE OLD ONES?
