Pirelli Scorpion Verde Owner Reviews

What owners say summarised from 60 reviews

Driver feedback on the Pirelli Scorpion Verde is mixed: many high-scoring reviews praise it as a comfortable, stable tyre with good all-round road manners and, for some vehicles/driving styles, strong mileage. A significant portion of users, however, report disappointing wet-weather confidence-especially in standing water/aquaplaning-and many also complain about faster-than-expected tread wear. Road noise is also a recurring complaint, often noted to get worse as the tyre wears.

Easy Going

Last season I decided to replace rather tired Korean tyres and thought that I'd try these Pirellis in order to be ecological. As an experiment I bought two in April and ran them until September (about 5000 miles) before replacing the other two. They performed fine on wet and dry roads (didn't try them on snow) but when I checked them in September I was horrified to see that the two new Pirellis were all but bald (while the two older Korean tyres were still quite serviceable). I've now replaced all four with Coopers. Would never touch the Pirellis again, I'm afraid.

Scorpion ST
Good all-round summer and winter tyres. Not particularly high levels of grip, but consistent wet or dry, with an easy progressive slide. Good all-rounder on wet, dry, snow and twisty alpine tracks; but poor in mud, which is to be expected. Lasted 45k miles (down to 3mm form about 9mm original depth) Were very good value for money through small LR specialists - used to be even cheaper to buy in Italy, even though they were made in Wales. Have been through at least four sets of four on three LR Discos (a TD300 and two TD5s). However, now running Conti Cross Contacts UHPs on a VW, which are a vastly superior 4x4 road-only (no snow or mud) tyre at a vastly superior price!
