Pirelli Scorpion%20Verde%20All%20Season Reviews - Page 6

Given 83% while driving a Hyundai Santa Fe (225/45 R17) on mostly motorways for 2,000 average miles
The Scorpion Verde is available as a summer tyre and an all season tyre. The all season has an entirely different tread pattern, compound and is more recent. I have them on a Santa Fe in 235/60/18 107 XL they replaced Kumho KL21 103Vs and are much better especially in the wet, handling, braking, standing water all dealt with much safer than the Kumhos. Quieter at all speeds than the Kumhos and less hard riding around town and over speed bumps.

These tyres are advertised as being quiet. On the Pirelli site they are quoted as complying with the EU 2012 noise emission regulations. However, they are so sensitive to the road surface that you could play music games with them. The slightest change in surface produces a different noise all the way from silent to loud buzz. ME: NOT A HAPPY CHAPPIE!!!

Sorry, but these are great tyres. Specifically produced for Landrover Evoque. The comments above are not worthy as this guy has clearly commented on a different pattern! The verde is not yet available in 235/70R16.

There's a new all season tire, can it be best?!

My Jeep came with Goodyear Wrangler tyres, but when they needed replacing, I couldn't source them locally. I was advised that Pirelli Scorpions were as good. They're not. On-road grip is generally poor even in the dry. In the wet especially on roundabouts, they're positively dangerous; even with very cautious driving, I've 'lost' the rear-end countless times. I wouldn't buy them again under any circumstances.
