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 tire 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 tires at 4 years and 30,000. By this time tires 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 tires were changed after 5 years and 43,000 miles with over 2mm tread left,

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

Very good tire 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 tire 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 tires, I don’t push things these days so they are probably more suited to a cruising / motorway tire than anything sporty. I noticed a significant improvement with the new tires 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 tire in 20" so looking at Goodyear as an alternative.

Volvo (215/65 R16 V) on mostly country roads for 25,000 average miles
Have used these tires on our VolvoXC70since we bought our car and noticed Volvo fit them as standard.
We do a lot of caravaning in all conditions and found the traction capabilities to be superb.Thwy are quiet and long lasting.
We will insist on them when changing tires

Given 70% while driving a Land Rover Evoque (235/55 R19) on mostly country roads for 42,000 average miles
Original fitting to an Evoque. Still good after 42,000 miles so wear has been excellent despite rough country roads caning the life out of them. Down to 3mm on the front and now not so good in the wet and poor in standing water (to be expected I suppose). Excellent when we had snow, was only one to get out of the village apart from heavy duty land rovers.
