Tires Pirelli or FULDA
Our XC90 just got fitted with Pirelli scorpions... Smooth as butter.
I mostly have stuck with Pirelli Scorpions and have been very happy. The Pirelli Scorpion Verde model gets a bit better gas mileage and is quiet.
I had the SF3 for 1 year and 40k km. Great, great tire. Quiet, comfortable, good grip in all conditions. They still had a lot of thread (4mm) but one of the rear ones developed some cuts on the inside. The SF3 felt a little too nervous with direction change. BUT, they were so much cheaper than the CC3S that I think they are still the best.
I use the new Pirelly Cinturato Winter 3 since like a week or so - they stick well, feels comfortable and silent on the highway too (at least until like 170 km/h, that is way over the speed limit here). More silent than the Michelin summer set.
I bought that Baja from him, put new Pirellis on it , and drove it for 85k miles for work between 2013 and 2021. Those tires are still on it in my garage, though they're definitely *done*.
Ich hab aktuell die Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 drauf und bin wirklich sehr zufrieden damit. Die sind bei den Tests immer vorne dabei. Kann ich nur empfehlen.
The tire in your picture is damaged from an impact like a pothole. You can see the rubber transfer on the rim. I have a Calligraphy with 21" wheels, and the OE Pirelli is $653. They are foam lined and offer a quiet ride, but i will definitely be replacing them with a Michelin or Continental as soon they reach 4/32nds. The replacement tires will probably cost half as much as OE.
My pirellis have 38k on them.
I'd highly recommend staying away from them. Everyone I've met who has tried them, including myself, has nothing good to say.
My tires were supposed to last 50k miles and only lasted 16k.
Pirelli are overpriced junk. Especially the scorpions.
