Pirelli Scorpion+Verde Reviews - Page 2

Given 64% while driving a Land Rover Freelander 2 (235/55 R19) on mostly motorways for 20,000 easy going miles
Not as good as original continentials from new which gave 45k miles. Bad wear rate on the Verdes with tread down to 3.5mm in 17k miles on mostly motorway. Very noisy with rough ride as they become Worn but very quiet when new and until tread goes down to about 5mm. Good points are they wear evenly with all 4 having same wear patterns however having to replace now due to one tyre becoming out of round (radial runout). No apparent damage.

Given 87% while driving a Ford Kuga (235/45 R19) on a combination of roads for 10,000 spirited miles
Had these tires on ford kuga 4x4 for 10k miles now, to say the vehicle is driven with spirit is an understatement, they perform very well in the snow, good in the wet, great in dry conditions, they wear well BUT, I find them quite noisy at speed but then again maybe most winter tires would at motorway speeds.

Given 30% while driving a Mercedes Benz GLC250D (255/45 R20) on mostly town for 0 easy going miles
My original GLC came with Pirelli Scorpion Verde fitted and it only last 25,000 KM until it was worn out. Replaced with another 4 Pirelli Scorpion Verde and once again they last 20,000KM. I would not waste any more money on Pirelli, my mechanic told me to switch to Continental PremiumContact as they last a lot longer.

There's a new all season tire, can it be best?!
Given 44% while driving a Ford Escape (/45 R17) on for 65 miles
I bought a set of 4. My make and model Ford Escape is a BEAST in snow/ice/mud. It may be pouring down rain, but it's driver would never know it. That is, until I used these tires.

Too expensive, wear too quickly, make really loud squeal on the limit. Excellent grip in the wet and wet braking they are awesome! Very pretty sidewalls

Given 51% while driving a Land Rover Freelander 2 (235/65 R17 W) on a combination of roads for 30,000 easy going miles
Worst tyre I have had in over 50 years of motoring. After 2 years and 14,000 miles first sign of cracking in grooves between treads. Cracking progressively got worse until had to change tyres at 4 years and 30,000. By this time tyres were in a distressed state with multiply cracks in groves and chunking of tread. Material looked very hard and brittle. For reference previous set of Pirelli tyres were changed after 5 years and 43,000 miles with over 2mm tread left,

Good grip and tyre wear, however huge tyre roar over 60mph. This coupled with a poor road surface can made long journeys a pain.

Very good tyre and very durable. I have still about 3 mm in front and 3,5 mm in the rear axle, but its became unsteerable in the vet.

Given 91% while driving a Volvo XC60 (235/60 R18 V) on a combination of roads for 35,000 average miles
I’ve just changed the OEM fitted Pirelli’s and had the same tyre fitted again. I had 35,000 miles out of the fronts with the n/s/f showing 2mm and the o/s/f at 3mm. With all the very heavy rain I was unwilling to leave it much longer though it’s just possible I could have got to 40,000. I’ve been happy with these tyres, I don’t push things these days so they are probably more suited to a cruising / motorway tyre than anything sporty. I noticed a significant improvement with the new tyres which is unsurprising as the degradation is gradual over time. The originals were very heavy on the steering at the end and were noticeably less happy dealing with rough road surfaces and potholes that seem to proliferate on uk roads today.
