Ran the General G-Max As-07 and they were a great tire but still had some slippage in rain. Went with the Michelin CrossClimate 2 to replace them and have never looked back. Better tire all around.
I can vouch for the Generals, their dry and wet traction is leagues better than the POS OEM Falkens, they're just as quiet, and treadwear is excellent. I ran 25k miles aggressively, and treadwear was minimal when I traded in my '18. I'm getting a new set of Generals tomorrow, when I take my winters off for the season.
The Pirellis are a tremendous improvement on dry pavement. I tried flooring it from a stop, and no wheel spin. Amazing difference. I haven't driven them in rain yet. I will say that they tramrail a bit.
I've put 75k km on the first set of Pirelli Scorpion Verde tires, also on SUV. No complains whatsoever.
I use Pirelli Weatheractives and they are an all weather tires (not all season, all weather) and work great and I'm in MB. Our winters are worse than yours and the tires were fine.
I replaced toyos at the same mileage with the same Pirellis. Huge difference in handling, I was shitting diamonds with Toyos on wet roads in heavy rain. They hydroplaned like crazy. I have put 65k on Pirellis by now and still have some life in them, probably another 10k. Great tires. And they were less noisy than toyos at least in the beginning.
I also bought the Pirelli Scorpions. Well done, great tires, so much better than the stock Toyos.
I have the Pirelli scorpion at plus 10 plys with 60 000km so far they have been very durable, good in deep snow, about as good as you can expect for an all season on ice, good in soft ground / mud, decent on the highway under 120km/h but definitely fall short of the stock Michelins AT2’s I had on the highway.
Definitely notice the added weight and stiffer ride of the 10 ply’s. Tires are wearing well and I have not been gentle on them, expect them to last 100 000+ km.
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.
