Pirelli P Zero vs Pirelli Scorpion Verde — Compared

“After one year with Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus Elect 2020 SR+ I replaced the Michelins on my 2020 SR+ at 42,000 miles and 3.5 years with the Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus Elect on my 2020 SR+. Since there are so many "What tire should I buy" posts, I thought I would give a one year review. Background: Live in the Washington, DC area so mild winters and 85% of my miles are local, suburban driving. With local traffic and traffic cameras all around, I drive pretty conservatively only occasionally punching it. Efficiency- Pirellis are about 3% less efficient than Michelins Michelin OEM MXMs 42,006 miles before replacing, 204 Wh/mi lifetime Pirelli P Zero All Season Elect Plus 13,832 miles 210 Wh/mi after 1 year. started out higher for the first 1,000 miles or so, so I expect this to drop to 208 or 209 lifetime. Ride is definitely smoother and quieter. Handling, well, I don't push it, so for me, equal. Grew up locally learning to drive in snow with 60's and 70's RWD cars, so I know how to drive in the light snow we get and the Pirellis handled the snow we got just fine. Just a few inches of heavy, wet snow at a time. Overall I would recommend the Pirellis. I am a bit efficiency minded but am debating taking another hit and getting the caps and pulling the aero covers off, but keeping them for the couple of road trips I do. I expect that would take another 3% hit, so still better than the EPA rated 220 Wh/mi.”

“Tyre reviews did a review a couple years ago. If you're on stock suspension and camber then go with the Michelins, if you want the best budget go Falken Azenis FK460 AS. The PZeros are fine but they're neither better than the Michelin nor the best budget option.”

“40mm Pirelli P-Zeros on my gravel bike I'm trying the 40mm Pirelli p-zero on long distances and I have to say that they surprised me even on short sections of compact dirt road.”

“Pirelli Scorpion Verde HT Circumferential Balding on Mid-outer I have 2 sets of tyres on a FWD Mitsubishi Outlander, installed 500 Kms apart. Trying to understand why the Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season have this balding on the outer 4/5th band for both tyres. It could be over inflation, but the Kumho Crugen HP71 don't show same wear yet both are usually at 35 PSI. Point of note, I have a Mi Air Compressor (full) that seems to differ PSI with petrol stations (It reads 32 PSI when I pump 35 PSI at the petrol station. I usually pump more with the compressor to what it reads as 35 PSI). On tyre usage, the Pirellis have done more than 3000 Kms of gravel on the front (Kumho chip a lot on gravel when at the front). About 500 Kms was on 30 PSI before Namibians advised me to use 26 PSi front and 30 PSI rear to better handle corrugations and skidding. Read more”

“Got a set of Pirelli Scorpion Verde all season for an EV9 recently. Ordered because I needed a higher treadwear count more than anything. Marcus in village tyres. Sound as a pound, will try and source whatever you want. Will also take delivery and fit anything you might order yourself 👌🏼”

“Pirelli Scorpion Verde mileage I know this is a bit of a loaded question but I have a question about the OEM tires on my '21 80th Anniversary Edition 4x4. They are the Pirelli Scorpion Verde. My GC has 35,000 miles / 56,000 Kilometers of mixed city highway use. I work from home and it does a fair amount of sitting the garage I roll into the dealer for oil and tire rotation and they try to quote me on new tires giving some story that the manufacturer tires dont have full treads on them. Some internet searches corroborate this but not completely. The mileage seems to be very low to need new tires, the treadwear is at a 4 per their sensors. I've purchased a tread depth gauge to see for myself but honestly I was thinking that I should be etting at least another 10K from the set before having to get new ones. I live in the US Southeast and not worried about snow traction at all...rain is the bigger concern. Question: Whats my reasonable expectation on this? I dont want to run them bald down to the wear bars but also dont want to prematurely get new ones.”
