225/40 20 Tire Review Highlights

Michelin Pilot Sport EV rated 45% while driving a Tesla Model Y Long Range
Driving on mostly motorways for 20000 spirited miles
I have these tires on my Tesla Y and till now, I have had 3 tires changed before their end date (first time at 25k km’s) the foam inside would come loose and create some sort of centrifuge effect which stopped me from driving faster then 100kmh, one time for 1500km’s as it started in the south of France and I had to go back to the Netherlands. I don’t trust these tires at all anymore.

Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season rated 70% while driving a Volkswagen Tiuan R Line
Driving on mostly motorways for 50000 easy going miles
got over 50K fronts worn more than rears - good grip on corners and in wet and on gravel roads - mostly run on blacktop and distance of 50 - 200 km trips. Probably have another 5K before needing replacement Thought that these low profiles are a lot noiser than Kuhmos I had on Toureg but have got used to the road noise on this Tiguan R series.

Pirelli P Zero rated 47% while driving a BMW 730Li
Driving on mostly motorways for 500 easy going miles
I use P Zero R20 run flat on a BMW 730 Li for a year. The tire was one year old when i bought it. Both tire has a cut insides which is very dangerous for a high soeed tire only after one year and Pirelli Malaysia said that its not their reaponsibility. Very very poor tire quality and brand promise. I am really surprises. I thought i paid for the best tire. Dont buy.

BCT S800 rated 21% while driving a Ford Mondeo TDCI
Driving on a combination of roads for 8000 average miles
Bought a car that came with 4 of these tires and oh my gosh they were just AWFUL.

EVERY SINGLE SIDEWALL HAD CRACKS which prompted me to replace them immediately. Dry grip was OK but wet grip was non existent with constant wheel spin under light acceleration.

Braking was a different story. It would cause the steering to snatch violently in the dry (I've had replacement discs, pads and calipers)

I've noticed that some others have mentioned that they thought their wheel bearings were failing - I had exactly the same issue and since replacing the tires, this has completely gone away.

If you value your life or anyone else's in your car, avoid these tires at all costs.

The only reason I have given these tires a 1 for wear rating is due to the sidewalls. There was still around 5mm of tread left on each Tire at replacement.

Cooper Zeon 4XS rated 90% while driving a Volkswagen TOUAREG V6 TDI
Driving on a combination of roads for 20000 average miles
Tried Cooper and will buy again. Wear rate is brill. Have used in the past Pirelli, Continental,Toyo and Michelin. Cooper is half the price of Michelin for similar performance and use.

Only changing tires early as down to 2.5mm and it's the rainy winter season.
