Tires Pirelli or Firestone
Prefer the Firestone's, however, since they're surprisingly quiet.
It’ll probably be close to 50K on the Firestone Destinations that came on my ‘21 Sport DCLB, great tires.
Mine came with the Firestone Destination LE2 and I was going to take them off immediately but they ride nice and are quiet, 20k on them now and they have 7/32” left. They came with 11/32” so if they keep wearing at the same rate they’ll be at 3/32” at 40k and it’ll be time to replace them. They’ve got a 60k treadwear warranty but I live in AZ and the heat is rough on tires.
They’re $30 cheaper per tire than Firestone Fuel fighter. I’ve only read one review and that was a Tesla owner, he seemed happy with them.
You can pick up used Pirellis from GT Americas. If you've never been to the Nashville race people haul away tires from the Pirelli tent all the time.
Have a 2021 Tiguan SEL with Pirelli Scorpion tires, 29,000 miles and the tires are still "green" for tread. Probably get 45,000 out of these.
Yes, the AS Plus 3 are not only quiet, they are smooth. I've them on another car, and so far so good. On broad and tighter highway sweeps, they handle 20+ over with confidence.
My subjective experience is that GP 5000 S TR 28 feel great and are light but they're not very durable. I feel like my Pirelli Pro Race TLR 28 last twice as long but feel a tad heavier.
My tires look the same on my CPO that I got 4 months ago :(
I currently have a set of Firestones on my car. I hate them. Noisest tire I have ever used, and they are leaving black marks on my garage floor. But they were cheep and that's all I could afford at the time. Never again.
