Tires Pirelli or Firestone
Just put pirelli Scorpio as3+ on my wife's pilot. Day 1 took the kiddo to soccer in freezing rain and 40 mph winds . They handled great, no slipping.
Pirelli cinturato velo..8000km on my gravel revolt and had just one puncture because of a needle. If not for sucking on sand they are probably the best endurance tyres i know.
While not a 200tw tire the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 (340tw) not only costs significantly less but I've ran them with excellent grip on my WRX.
I opted for Pirelli scorpion westheractive for my cx5 from tire rack. I liked the price of them and reviews are high.
The original Winter Force tires are streets ahead of the Winter Force 2.
I like the set of firestone winterforce I just put on our XC70 this year so far. Took them out on snow/ice a few times so far and they feel like I would expect any dedicated winter tire to feel. What took me by surprise is how they drive in the dry... perfectly reasonable handling/braking and reasonable road noise for a winter tire. These actually handle and brake better in the dry than bridgestone weatherpeaks.
Installed the Pirelli Scorpion Zero AS Plus 3 NCS Elect 275/45/20 tires on our CX-9 and the first few hundred miles felt loose/squirrelly but it’s fine now.
Got new Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus tires on my 2019 CX-5 Touring. The ride is quiet and smooth, but the steering feels loose now. I’m constantly correcting it, and it drifts left or right within seconds if I let go of the wheel.
Got a new wheel set with Pirelli P Zeros for the summer. They didn't make it to September Before the tread was gone.
I have had two flats and one additional tire that developed a sidewall bulge that had to be replaced, all over about 14 months, less than 20,000 miles. Its seems the slightest bump on it makes them go flat or damages them in some way. Not only that the tread has wore down ridiculously fast and the last original tire seems like it already has dry rot around the edges.
