I finally bit the bullet and bought Pirelli Scorpion after 37k miles on Toyos.
The difference in ride quality, noise and turning is insanely different. When driving, it felt confusingly smooth and my god when turning, it felt like I was legit gliding. I had insane grip on turns whereas I'd have to tone it down when on stock tires because the grip was always suspect to me.
The inside cabin noise has decreased dramatically for me as well.
We changed our Yoko's out at 1300 miles. Very happy with the General 365AW's we replaced them with, they handle almost as well in the snow as the Michelin XiceSnow tires on our other car.
From Bridgestone Turanza Eco to Pirelli Scorpion Elects [EU].
Couldnt be happier with the switch. Just a tiny bit more noisy then the turanza, but on the grip and feedback its miles better.
Never leave home w/o snows in the winter. Pirelli winter sottozero.
I have all weather tires by general tires. They work well. Main issue for my 2014 F56 is ground clearance.
All weather tires are a thing now, they’re between a dedicated winter tire and all season. They tend to do just as well in the snow as a dedicated winter tire but not as well on ice, but still better than an all season. The best part is they’re meant to be run all year round and are incredible in the rain as well. They do tend to be a little noisier than an all season and have a bit of tread squirm which you can feel on turn in. I run them on my daily and as soon as I hit the brakes for the first time in the snow I was completely sold, never going back to all seasons again.
I eventually got a set of Pirelli tires and upsized to 205-50/16s. Earlier this year I ran over a nail but the tire couldn't be patched because the puncture was too close to the tire edge. When I went to get another I was told that Pirelli tires were backordered because of the pandemic. So I opted for two new Falken tires at the same size because I want the tread to match on the rear axle.
It’s not a good brand but it isn’t the worst.
But with the exception of the general grabbers. Those are some good off road tires for trucks
The General Max tires I had sucked so bad. Alot of delamination of the tread. Some runs I would lose entire chunks of the tire.
The former owner of my Gen3 had Angel ST on, which sucked bad.
