Tires Pirelli or GT Radial
I have the Pirellis on my CX-5 and I have the Cross-Climates on another SUV. My driving is "spirited" and I haven't noticed a wear issue on either. The Pirellis corner like you're on rails, so it's a great driving experience.
Highly recommend the Pirelli’s, have em, love em. Very quiet ride especially compared to the Toyos.
For tires, I got the Pirelli P-Zero AS+3 tires for my GLI and they are really good. They beat the DWS06 tires in Tirerack and Tyre Reviews testing.
I just took off my winter tires from 2017 that have had less than 10k km use during 6 winters. I put on a pair of pirelli sf3 on the front and my old 2020 primacy 4 on the back. The car, a toyota auris feels SO much lighter and happy to turn and so, so much quieter.
All new Pirelli Cinturato C3 on 19 inch are amazing. They are quiet, super gripy and predictable. And the sidewall is really cool.
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 run pirelli p7 a2s in the summer (which are super quite and comfortable) quality tire. I use some cheapo winter tire in the winter (which are loud af)
I had two cars that had pirellis, a VW GTI and. Corrado G60, I found them to be super stiff and prone to blowouts if I hit a pothole, hell it seemed like they’d blow if I saw a pothole! Pirelli got crossed off my list 25 years ago
Used to work at a tire shop 2010-2014. In their price range, we had the most trouble with Pirelli’s. Customers would complain about the ride or noise more often than other brands and they’d get them exchanged for Michelins or Yoko’s. They also arrived with more factory defects compared to others.
