How scores work
- Relative score
- 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.

The Pirelli Scorpion M/TR receives overwhelmingly positive reviews from users who praise its exceptional value, aggressive styling, and surprising on-road refinement. Drivers frequently note that unlike typical mud-terrain tires, these are remarkably quiet on the highway while still delivering stellar off-road performance in mud, snow, and rough terrain.
Pros
- Exceptionally quiet on-road for a mud-terrain tire
- Aggressive appearance with tough, durable sidewalls
- Great off-road traction in mud, rocks, sand, and snow
- Excellent value and pricing compared to competitors
- Good wet-weather handling and road manners
Cons
- Tires are reported to be quite heavy
- Extremely difficult to seat the bead during installation
- Limited long-term data available on tread wear from recent buyers
Worth knowing
- Users specifically highlighted the 31x10.5 size as weighing around 47.5 lbs, noting it as a stout construction.
- The C-load range in size LT285/75R-16 was praised on a Toyota 4Runner for providing a much smoother ride compared to overly stiff E-load range tires.
- Fitted successfully across various rugged platforms including Ford Broncos, Toyota 4Runners, Jeeps, and Chevy trucks with reliable clearance and performance.
