Tires Pirelli or KENDA
Adding my experience here too: I miserably struggled with those CRAPPY Turanzas on my Turbo 3 for almost 4 years, and I finally had them swapped out for Pirelli AS+3's. As crappy as Turanzas were throughout this time (leading to multiple replacements), I'm only now realizing in comparison how utterly awful they really are!
Right off the bat, steering is so much more nimble and smooth, I probably put half as much effort into steering now. Traction is worlds better, and the car runs a lot gentler, too. Don't get me wrong, 3T is rough by nature, but now it's gliding over the same bumps and humps compared to the death shocks from Turanzas (which by the way, got exponentially worse over time). There's a lot less understeering with Pirelli's now, and interestingly, MPG shows signs of improvement as well. So, count me in love!
Just got a set of Kenda Vezda this week, so I can’t really say much about them yet. This is the third time I have gotten Kenda. The last set was Kenda Kenectica, and I got over 50,000 miles out of them. They seem to be a pretty decent brand for being on the reasonably priced side. They lasted a lot longer than the Coopers that were on it before that.
Living in Wisconsin, I will be swapping out the OEM summer tyres with Pirelli Sottozero 3 winters. WINTER SOTTOZERO™ 3 235/35R19 91V XL AUDI - Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3 tires are designed for maximum safety in all weather conditions.
Love mine! I’m getting 2.20mi/kwh. With oem Pirellis, I was getting about 2.0mi/kwh
I love my Pirelli Scorpion AT plus. Low noise, good mileage and cheaper than most others. Look aggressive as hell
I have the night dragon on my rear with no complaints
Sticking with my Pirelli PZero AS Plus 3's on my stock 19" Scottsdales. More than enough for the bit of snow we get here, perfect for the winter temperature range we get and (trigger warning for those who claim snow tires or no tires), they're M+S rated so they are legal on mountain passes here if I decide to drive through them
Hopefully Pirelli can develop a tyre that heats up quicker and slides less while cold.
Ive had one set of Pirelli and I hate them so much. So much that I don’t even want to bother trying their tires again.
I have the Pirelli Zero winter tires on my car and they are trash. Constantly slipping and sliding with minimal amounts of snow on the ground. Not even close to being in the same class as the Blizzak's on my other car.
