Just my thought and sharing Snow tire (purposed built) will probably MArked SNOW Tire on the Sidewall. there are some tires in the MARKET markded All Season , M+S(MUD & Snow) , All Weather are tires designed and Formulated for 4 Seasons (particularly Winter Season) ,is a Regulatiors Required all Vehicles on the road during the Winter (NOT heavy Snow) during Winter season. and my understanding ( correct me if I am Wrong) this tires has no problem running on the road even in the Summer season. just MHO ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamburger Hypersonic April 27, 2020 Share April 27, 2020 I am using GY Wrangler. Not the quietest tyre and the grip is modest at best. Kup in a corner and the tyre would start to slide a bit but still predictable to handle it. It's a comfortable and built with soft side wall tyre.

Watwheels Supersonic May 5, 2020 Share May 5, 2020 I'm looking at West Lake tires. They are MIC. Haha... but they make light trucks and suv tires. My company light truck has been using this brand and is a lot durable than the Bridgestones that came with it. Initially we tried replacing the Bridgestones tires that are same as factory but they just wears out too fast and dont have good grip. Actually this West Lake brand makes off road tires. They also have on and off road tires suitable for our type of road usage. Just wondering how it performs and how's the pricing. http://www.westlaketyre.com/na/index.php/productcars/48 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roberttan 5th Gear May 19, 2020 Share May 19, 2020 JMHO tire size upgrade can base on 1 ) Car Manufacturers optional size (refer to Owners Manual or Tire Label stick on Driver door / Pillar / Fuel Cap cover 2 ) Tire company recommendation (refer to Tire Product Book which tire retail shop should have them) 3 ) ONline 4) friends recommendation 5) Own prefereance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mersaylee Supersonic May 19, 2020 Share May 19, 2020 I have the pirelli scorpion verde on my suv. Very good tires for a near 1.9 tonner even at corner... the grip and the feedback on steering are surprisingly good. I enjoy the long sweeping bend in mce tunnel whereby the tires would make the car like it’s on rail... wowo is infamous for numb steering feel...this tire has changed my view on that had pilot sport on the bigger suv before this car which was not bad as well but pale in comparison to the pirelli...

Last month My friend change his Pirelli scorpion Verde to a Pirelli Pzero PZ4.. he says immediately becomes quieter. Then few days ago i just changed to a Pzero PZ4 size 235/55-18, speed load rating 100v. I pumped air to 270 and Wapianz more comfortable than previous 44k mileage Goodyear F1A3 235/50-18 which I pump 260. my first thought is Pzero PZ4 is like a touring tyre for luxurious sedan.. no wonder it’s fitted on Merc E class. michelin PS4 lovers be reminded not to use the Pirelli as will most likely hate the soft sidewall. but I like....

Yah, the road noise from the scorpion is on the higher side...I crank up the ice to drown it to me, grip and holding more important... I had PS4 before on a wagon and find the scorpion is comparable in terms of side wall... best bang for buck tire experiences (on sedan only) are the CSC5...relatively cheap and yet last a longer time with very good grip and holding on dry. best tire for wet I ever had was the goodyear eagle f1 asymmetric 2, noisy like hell though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree....same experience on a Harrier, from stock Bridgestone Ecopia. No increased in tyre noise, but wet grip significantly improved. No regrets. Reasonable price too of around $220 per piece if not mistaken. Hope this tyre set up it will last for at least 20K. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannot find a reason to chuck them out. have used Michelin PSS, PS4, Yoko AD07, Bridgestone re01r, dunlop z1 etc. suffice to say that it’s pretty decent.
