Tires Pirelli or SUMITOMO
Pirelli Cinturato Velo will provide better grip and more durability.
For years I have been using 4seasons, but last year I decided to try something different and replaced them with Pirelli Cinturato Velo TLR. Have been happy with these, my totally unprofessional feeling is that they are a bit more grippy than 4seasons.
I have them on my 356 (model CA67) and absolutely love them.
I run the 220tw PZero on my MK7.5 GTI. Nevertheless, a great tire. Plenty of grip, not bad in the rain and can take the abuse of the occasional track day- I’m really surprised as to how they can handle the heat cycle and wear evenly at the track. On the street- they offer more performance than you can throw at them. Daily driving, they don’t wear as quickly as you’d expect a tire in the low 200tw range to wear.
Reliable. 30k miles. No issues at all except for the Pirellis that were worn way faster than expected.
I will say that I've had a really good experience with the pirelli pzeros that I have on mine, they're super grippy.
I've had the Pirelli's on my Touareg for about two years now, lots of highway and towing miles. I've put around 12k miles on the Scorpion Verde's and love them. Very responsive and no road noise. Haven't had any issues in wet conditions
I have had a few Pirelli tires. The only Pirelli tire I was ever impressed with were the Rosso's and the Corsa's. One thing to mention is Pirelli mileage warranties have always been inflated (as well as many other companies). Do not expect 50k out of these and track every rotation and do them on time. With other Pirelli performance all season tires they were good for the first 1/3 of tread then got borderline undividable in snow and heavy rain. More noticeable than other competitors when worn. One thing to note is I have always liked the Pirelli sidewall stiffness compared to Michelin and Continental.
mine lasted easily 30-40k miles but they sucked the whole time. i once got stuck on slight inclines where there was a stop light because it was raining. didnt even set off aggressively but the wheels just spun on me, it wasnt cold or anything...just slightly wet.
My Mustang came with those and I do not recommend driving on them at below +5c degrees. I drove at 1-2 degrees and the car felt very loose and slidy when turning, even at lower speeds.
