“My mom's mercedes GLC300 came with pirelli scorpion Verde tires and they have 1/32" measured left on the wear bars after less than 30k miles. My mother drives like a grandma too. They're fine for turns and pep on Florida roads but absurdly short wear time.”

Higher is better. The Relative Score follows your weights below; category scores do not change.
Wet grip starts at “Important”. Treadwear starts at “Neutral” here: road tests measured it for at most one of the two tires, so it rests on owner reviews. Move the sliders and the scores update instantly.
Only one of the two tires has a score here, so this weight changes nothing in the head-to-head.

Themes extracted from owner reviews found online — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.
From Reddit, forums and review threads. Not part of our score
Community opinion is split: many owners praise the Scorpion Verde for quiet ride, good wet/dry traction, hydroplaning resistance and low price, with some reporting long life. Others, especially OEM users on Jeep, Mercedes and Volvo vehicles, report fast tread wear (about 20–30k miles), poor snow and cold-weather grip that worsens as the tread wears, and uneven wear or sidewall cracking. Many recommend dedicated winter tires or all-weather alternatives like the Michelin CrossClimate 2 for snowy climates.
“We had the stock Pirelli Scorpion Verdes on our XC40 and I can corroborate that they were pretty terrible in the snow. No complaints about them in the dry or wet though, so they would probably be fine for warmer climates. The dealer put Michelin CC2s on our XC60 before we picked it up and I concur with everyone saying they are excellent in the snow. They’re good enough that when our XC90 makes it stateside we’re going to have the dealer take off the brand new Pirelli’s and put on CC2s so I don’t have to worry about swapping snow tires on every year.”
“How are the stock Pirelli Scorpion Verde tires? Worth switching to all weather tires for the winter in Pittsburgh? I bought a Tiguan SE a few months ago and it came stock with the 19 in Pirelli Scorpion Verde tires. I live in Pittsburgh, PA and our winters vary with some years of snow and many years without much at all. However, Pittsburgh gets very cold. How are the stock tires? Is it worth switching to an all weather tires like the Michelin CrossClimate 2s since we switch from dry and wet winters? I do have room to store the CrossClimates for the summer so I can at least use up my stock tires.”

A quick update on this. 275/40 r20 on 2013 a8l are too close to the steering arms. The gap with 265/40 20 is 10mm , a wider tire will shrink this clearance to 6mm. I ended up RMAing these in favor of 35 aspect ratio. These fit perfectly”
Based on 65 community posts
Community members generally view the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 very positively, frequently praising its wet grip, cold weather performance, and steering feel when compared to rivals like Michelin Pilot Sport 4 and Pirelli P Zero. While some users find them exceptionally quiet, others note moderate road noise or low-speed scrubbing on full lock.
“F1 Asy 5s on my S204. I can confirm they are pretty decent and have coped well with the tarmac-ripping 154hp and 184 lbs-ft torque of the M274 fitted to my wagon”
“I have them fitted in both my cars (Audi A6 and CLK350). Neither had the performance of your AMG but I can confirm they are the best tyres I’ve ever had in terms of grip and feel.”

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
Handling is the exception: road tests measure it inside the dry and wet scores, so its own row comes from owner ratings only and starts as less important.
