Disappointed with these tyres
I had these tyres fitted new with my new 22” wheels on my Cayenne, and they are just crap.
Thinking Pirelli would be an awesome tyre. When you drive the car from cold it feels like the tyres have flat spots in them giving a weird feel till they warm up. Then when at speed they get noisy and lack directional feel. Spoke to the Tyre guy at PSI tyres in ferntree gully who supplied them and he tells me to park the car on carpet overnight to help with the flat spot. WTH? Anyways no joy from him or Pirelli. Waste of money.

very disappointed
I got a set fitted to my 2013 diesel grand Cherokee. They looked the business and I thought the Pirelli brand would be great. Unfortunately the traction wasn't very good at all. Wet or dry. I was coming off a set of factory Michelin Latitude tours which were better than great, wet or dry when new, but terrible in the wet when about 70% worn.. that's when I replaced them. The Pirelli was about the same in the wet when new, as the Michelins were when they were nearly stuffed. My anti locks have been given a work out on these Pirellis I can tell y...Read more
ou, with many a near miss even at jogging speed. Off road they were fine, but only light off road use. They lasted about the same as the Michelins. These tyres are noisy at all road speeds. I do like to "enjoy" my tyres and only get about 30-35K from a set and have done on many vehicles over the years. Sometimes less. To me, wet braking and steering is very important. I know what a 4 wheel slide feels like and know the feeling of braking hard and getting into an antilock pulsing frenzy. Tyres that last for 80 thou but can put you into a tree in the wet are not the tyres I want. You can save a few bucks on rubber but maybe cost your life on a slippery road or in an emergency. Grip is king. I test the limits of my tyres and then drive inside it. I've been going pretty slowly with the Pirellis. :( They are due for replacement now and I think I will try the Pirelli Scorpion ATR. They seem to have good reviews. I would not recommend the Pirelli Scorpion Zero. They are slippery and noisy.There are much better (safer/grippier/ longer lasting and quieter) tyres for the money.Similar opinion?

These are good tyres for Freelander 2, probably Disco Sport
It's a sod getting off-road tyres for a Land Rover Freelander 2 with R18 rims. The rim size is rare amongst off-road tyres. I haven't actually found a 'genuine off-road' tyre. For combination, though, these tyres are the best; on-road grip and performance is excellent; whilst off-road performance, particularly in greasy conditions, is stunning. Wear is a weak point, I usually get about 40,000km only - or less. But I do a fair bit of off-road, so they get chopped about.
Update 6/9/2016; a negative and a solution: the wear rate on these t...Read more
