Tires Pirelli or Kumho
I had good experience with Kumho as affordable tyre option
I have the previous Pirelli Scorpion version on a CX5 and they have been quiet and handle like a dream. I have driven the f..k out of them across country three times, twisty back roads of many states and quite a few dirt roads. I have over 100k on this set and had to warranty replace one because of a puncture near the side.
Take it to Les Schwab or Discount Tires. I had a similar puncture like yours with same the Pirelli tire and Les Schwab patched it up for free for first time customer.
Switched from Toyos to the Pirelli Scorpion and instantly felt a difference. Much more quiet and smooth
Pirelli Scorpion AS3 is what I got after the toros and they did not disappoint
Good grip in dry & wet, mud + snow rated, quiet, have had them on for the past 3 years. I live in Ontario, these are excellent in the snow.
Buy Kuhmo AT51 road venture. You won't regret it. Even in deep snow.
I live in mountains with lots of snow. No problem whatsoever.
Oh and the tires are very quiet.
I replaced the Pirellis on ours due to excessive road noise at about 50,000 miles. Had plenty of tread life left but I was tired of the noise. Went with a Nitto tire that was an improvement over the Pirellis but will probably try a Michelin on my next set
I also have a bit of personal experience with Kumho - Wintercraft winter rubber. I don't like it honestly...
The Pirelli p zeros on my m sport 330e has been a nightmare. I swapped them out at least 3x in two years (live in NYC with lots of potholes).
