Tires Pirelli or Maxxis
Pirelli Scorpion AS 3 have been great for me: quiet, comfortable, good handling in most conditions. I've put 13K miles on them so far. I replaced the Toyos at 17K miles; in addition to terrible wet handling, they became rather noisy after 10K.
I put the pirelli scorpion as plus 3 on my 24 cx5 and i haven't hydroplaned since. They have great traction, wet or dry and even in the snow they perform well too.
No. I feel the tires overall have been holding up pretty well. Much better than Pirelli. There will always be events that just kills the tires and Greece is one of those events.
Eu sunt contraexemplu pentru pirelli. am cinturato sf2 pe 17", nu am nicio problema, se descurca excelent de peste un an.
As others have stated, it is important to factor in the tire's width when discussing the transition zone on the DHF. I love the 2.3 DHF. I find the 2.5 to be very good, but less predictable.
The Bridgestones I think are cheaper but better in the wet in my experience
But the Pirellis in the dry grip like nothing else
I used pzero tlrs all last year. Totally different rims to yours, and no tape on my rims which makes stuff easier. The last set I put on was the 2023 version from their new factory and one of them was quite a bit more difficult for whatever reason.
I’ve got Scorpions on my X5 and they’re O K.. but don’t have a super aggressive tread and I think the weathepeaks will be better in the snow. Plus the Scorpions haven’t been wearing great. I’ve got 30k on them and I don’t see them making it to the 60k warranty
Pirelli tires are the worst. I had the original one on my meccedes c300. We were deiving in the mountains and went over a stone at about 30-40 mph speed. Th driver side tires shredded like they were made of cheap plastic.
I had the same problem with the same tires (Pirelli Scorpion MX, 3 month old). Discount tiers did the patch for free as always.
The next day I got the low air pressure error in the tire again. It turned out that the tire had deflated by 4 psi.
