Tires Pirelli or OEM FORD
Switched to Pirelli Rosso 4 and the problem went away almost entirely.
i once rode my 40mm P Zero Race TLR on gravel all day on 15 psi and no puncture. built like a tank.
Have Yakima ski rack on roof cross bars (empty today). Factory Pirelli Scorpion tires (they were great in the blizzard last week despite all the complaints on the interwebz about them).
Had the Pirellis on my A4 for about 2 years and honestly they're pretty solid. The noise difference isn't huge unless you're super sensitive to it, but the fuel efficiency gains are real.
I've got the Pirelli AS Plus 3 on my Rav4 - great tire.
My Y with Soto zero 3s gets about 280-300 on my commute where I normally get 210-240 wh/mi with summer tires. It’s an increase but 500 seems excessive even with a heavy foot
Heavy air.
While braking on the big straight away, every single time I was sliding, ABS kicked on, and I had to counter steer, these tires are awful and got scrubbed hard. Imo I was not overdriving though, I didn't skid much, where I did, it was very brief.
Originally came with new car 20k mile Perelli’s so I had to put new tires on fairly early
We are on the original launch edition pirellis on our R1S (20” wheels) and I can’t stand the noise either.
