Pirelli Scorpion Verde Reviews - Page 2

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.

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.

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.

These have been fitted since new and not sure whether its the tyre or car at fault. After just over 10000 miles the outer edges are slicks and down to 3.4 mm These are MO Scorpion verdes 255/45/r20 will not be putting same on again

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.

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.

Mercedes Benz (255/45 R20 W) on a combination of roads for 20,000 average miles
Good grip when it's dry but not so gripping in the wet. They have worn well for 20,000 miles with still a little life in them. A possible alignment issue has contributed to uneven wear at the front so they'll all be replaced. Pirelli don't make the Scorpion Verde run flat as an All Season tyre in 20" so looking at Goodyear as an alternative.
