Tires Pirelli or Nexen
I noticed considerably less road noise with the Scorpions compared with the Toyos that came with the car
Have done about 200 miles on the Pirellis, and the difference is night and day with everything. Noise, grip, stopping, etc...
The Pirellis are an excellent tire . Great in the rain and snow plus handle very well in all weather.
I got the scorpions after getting an irreparable flat. They’re not much quieter but man do they stick to the road. I really test the friction with my driving habits
I also got the Pirellis. Fantastic tires. Much quieter and smoother.
Um I got my x3mc with p0's pz4 and I love them because there is no sideflex in them, you really only feel the suspension working and not the tire, so very darty steering if you will.
Nexen N'Fera SU1? I mean they are a summer only UHP tire... They wear terribly fast, stick like glue on dry pavement, are acceptable in wet conditions, and will turn into skateboards anytime the temp falls below freezing. Comfort and road noise are good for that class of tire
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
I'm new to this having zero experience with them before 2023 when I bought a new car that game on p7 all season run flats. These are the scariest tires I've driven on in my life. I swapped mine out immediately for some continental dws 206 after one night driving home in some rain, having to go 40 mph in the right lane with my hazard lights on because at 45 I would hydroplane and have no control. How they legally got away marking those as all season is beyond me.
Their summer tires are not guaranteed- I had a set of rears that I paid over $800 after 700 miles they had major uneven wear and alignment was spot on. I called sent pics and they said we don’t guarantee those tires - p-zero’s.
