Ridden both tires (well the GP5000 TLR not the STR) and both are brilliant. Pirellis are easier to fit and seem sturdier but that's just based on my experience. Both are great tires so I'd get which ever has the best price
I use tubeless 30mm P-zeros on my roadbike, I put 2300 miles on them from new last year (3700km). The rear tire is done for, it looks like your front tire, it has chunks of the carcass missing and I can see the inner layers. This isn’t surprising because the rear tire wears out faster than the front because most of your weight is on the rear and the driven wheel also wears out the tire faster. I’m also 280 pounds so that shortens the life span too. But the front tire still looks good, I’m thinking I’ll get about a half season more out of it. I bought a new p-zero to mount on the rear, and I’ll keep buying them one at a time to replace each tire as they wear out. I’ve been very happy with the performance of these tires so far
I have been driving all sorts of cars for 30 years and I have NEVER met a tire that is as well behaved on dry, wet, and snowy roads. I was all in on that statement, but the Yokohama Geolander has made me rethink that.
It does everything I need it to do.
Dry - The tire is precise, predictable, and quiet. It feels like I could panic swerve and the tire would not turn to mush.
Wet - I have never felt the tire nearing departure.
Snow - Even at near end of life, at 6/32ths of an inch, it did really well.
I’ve got the Geolandars on mine. They are great in the rain and smooth on tarmac at highway speeds. Haven’t had my snow to test with.
I loved my Geolanders!
I got the Geolanders literally 48 hours ago - got back from my first adventure with them about 15 minutes ago, handled amazing in dirt, deep mud and snow - haven’t had them long enough to recommend them one way or another but no initial complaints
Geolanders for sure. I have them on mine and they handle better than I could have hoped.
Pirelli Sotozerro. There is only snow on the ground for maybe 5 days total but for the rest of winter I want anything BUT the loud highway drone of Blizzaks
For anyone who lives in snowy climate, do you find OEM Yokohama tires suck in the snow? I live in Minnesota and it's winter wonderland now but I find myself slipping and sliding perhaps more than I should.
Pirelli P7 A/S - nice but wore quickly, even on a Honda Fit. That, and the Pirelli A/S runflats that came OEM on the Alfa are the worst tires I've used
