Replacement tires for the 21" Pirelli Scorpion's - YOKO'S?

[traxiii]

Getting near time to replace the factory rubber. The Scorpions are ok, but I run mostly Michelin's and tire rack recommends the Yokohama Geolander. I plan on 95% road/highway driving and the rest dirt/gravel roads. Does anyone have any experience with the Yoko's? Are the Michelin's worth the extra $100+ per tire?

We just had a set of Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4 installed at Costco, I'm sure they would do fine on the occasional gravel road. I had Geolanders on a CRV and they got noisy near their EOL, but they helped that AWD CRV go places a CRV shouldn't.

I replaced my Pirellis when I upgraded to 22’s. Running Pilot Sport All season 4 in 295/22R40. I’d say tires are significantly better and WAY better in wet or snow.

Good to hear,

Don't have any plans for serious off-roading, just hitting some trail heads or campgrounds. They will see snow on I-80 or US-50 going to Tahoe or Reno. Sounds like the A/S 4's all the way.

I'm pleased with the Pirelli WeatherActives. Dry and wet performance are good. Haven't tried them in snow yet, but also have a set of Blizzak's for winter. I wanted a very good wet tire, and they deliver.

My stock Pirellis are down to 4/32’s. Back in the day they’d be good until I saw metal bands but I’m going to Costco soon and they’ll install my Michelin 21” Pilot A/S. Looking forward to it

I'd like to hear what you think of them.

we have a couple thousand miles on the Pilot Sport A/S 4 and they are great. Very quiet and stick well in the mountains. 45k warranty.

The Costco guy was pushing the Bridgestone Alenza W speed rating but I’ve been sticking with Michelin for years. Like 8 years ago got some Bridgestone Ecopias, I took them back the next afternoon. They rode like crap.

Had the Sports for about 1200 miles so far, they ride really well. They're brand new so take that with a grain of salt. If I remember right, the stock Pirellis rode well when new also. I'm driving 600 miles in to get my kid from college for a break in about a week. No on a side note, if I my memory serves me right, the Pirellis were better on gas. But I'll check on my trip

Any more updates after some more time with them? Looking to get a new set of tires this week

My Pirellis did not age well. Put Michelin Pilot AS in 29540R22 with new wheels about 8k ago. Noticeable improvement in traction particularly wet. So far really happy with them. Been pushing them this past few days testing my new big brake kit.

The Toyo Proxes Sport is a good option too.

Went with the Yokohamas I just don't know if the Pilot was worth the extra $400 ish.. AND the tire shop I do business with said they where on National backorder from there suppliers so my decision was kind of maid for me lol
