I replaced the tires on the CX9 with a set of Pirelli Scorpions and loved them. They handled very well in the wet and dry,were quiet, and did not impact fuel efficiency significantly.
I like the P7's for quiet and economy. They are quiet and get good mileage without wear. Have the pirelli Scorpion Verde A/S on my truck, they are great compared to the crap bridgestones it came with.
There’s no better feeling in the world than replacing Pirelli’s with Continental’s, just got rid of mine and threw on some conti purecontacts, cat rides so much smoother and no more worries about my tires.
One more vote for the Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3. Had them on the CX-5 for more than a year and they make me wish I had done it sooner.
I run the Pirellis on our MKT and it does fine year round. Decent grip in the twisties when it comes time for the lake trip, love those state routes. Never have any issues in the white stuff in the winter either. My brother had Conti Cross Climates on his GTI up until its last day and he loved them in the winter time though he did say they were a little lack luster in summer, they're AS tires after all.
We put the Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3 on the Ioniq 5. Great tire, combines good handling with a smooth quiet ride. I think the Continentals will be slightly more comfortable. Michelin Defenders would be my 3rd choice just based on price. Newer Michelins haven't wowed me in general, and they are ridiculously priced. Competing Pirellis and Continentals are usually cheaper and give you comparable performance.
I replaced the Goodyears with Pirelli WeatherActive, also Northeast.
I got 40,000 miles on the stock Falkens including snow and ice with conservative driving. Replaced with Pirelli Cinturado Strada "all season*"225/50/r17 from Discount tire for slightly larger tirewheel and wider tire (1/4" more clearance, a liffle more float in sand) but mostly the 70,000 mile warranty. I calculate (by gps and road markers) this gives me about 103% on miles (ie speedo reads a bit low) and I can feel the lower torque vs before. Def a harder compound than the Falkens, so I dont drive as aggressively in corners.
Had these tires for 4 years with approximately 50,000 km on them. I noticed that 1 out of 4 is starting to crumble like this. I mainly do city driving.
I hated the Pirellis on my M3P, and only got ~4500 miles on the rear due to an absolute sh*t alignment from the factory. Plus there is no treadwear warranty on the Pirelli. Ferrari forums will attest that these tires are generally horrible on life. Swapped the rears for Michelin PS4 summer tires (they also have an EV version with the foam to help with noise, and have a treadwear warranty).
