Tires Pirelli or NANKANG
Nankang AR1’s are absolutely amazing but I wouldn’t recommend driving on them in anything but completely dry weather as they’re basically a road legal semi slick.
I just put on a set of Nankang Greensport Eco Plus 165/60R12. Reviews seem to be all over the place but I've been happy with them so far, including in some recent rain. My area doesn't get snow at all so I can't comment on that.
I've been buying my nankang tires directly from the EU branch: https://www.nankang.eu/ Fast shipping.
I love the Pirelli’s though, especially the Sottozero 2 on my 718. In the cold and dry, it doesn’t feel like you’re even giving that much up over the summer performance tires in summer, which is great.
Just swapped from the OEM 20” Pirelli Scorpions to the Goodyear Wrangler Territories and it’s near perfect now.
I had two of these pirellis bubble on me around the same time. Replaced all four because apparently these tires are prone to bubbles in the first place.
O meu carro tem 300cv e tenho esses nankang precisamente nesse modelo. Já vou no 2 par, antes tinha uns yokohama e também tive hankook e sinceramente a diferença é quase nula...
Had the same tires and the same thing happened. Most expensive tires I'd ever bought and they let me down. I use Bridgestone now for price and quality balance
I used to work for Benz as a tech. Nothing but problems with Pirelli. They has become a shell of what they used to be. Total garbage but still a high price tag. I’m a Michelin fan if you can stomach the cost. Continental or Bridgestone as alternatives.
I have a 2024 Hyundai sante fe. (SUV)
With Pirelli tires scorpion MS 245/45 R21.
Not even 6k on the car and the sidewall bubbled.
