    Pirelli Scorpion as plus 3 on CX-5 reviews?

    I too am now running Pirelli Scorpion A/S +3's. I ditched my fast wearing OEM Toyo's about 3 years ago to get these Pirelli's not long after they first came out. I did a lot of comparisons on the Tire Rack website between these and the 2 other tires I was considering...Michelin CrossClimate 2's...

    2024 CX-5 GS Ride Quality and Noise Levels

    A Michelin rep told me the Primacy acoustic foam tires would help me a lot. Unsure, 😕 I've seen people say it doesn't do anything but people saying it made the CX-5 a smooth ride and quiet 🤐 🤫 Pirelli is good too. But they don't have acoustic tires for my size... 😞

    Pirelli Scorpion as plus 3 on CX-5 reviews?

    I switched from A36 to Pirelli Scorpion as plus 3, at 15k mi Impression - more quiet, better handling in snowy conditions, would recommend To me personally the car became a bit "wobbly", but that is regarded as being more comfortable by most people. I liked A36 hard precision.

    Pirelli Scorpion as plus 3 on CX-5 reviews?

    If you're referring to the Pirelli A/S Plus 3 people are mentioning ... They are definitely not a 'snow' tire. Much safer to check with tires that have a 3PMSF designation, for "severe winter" weather. (Even some of those might not be stellar, but I wouldn't want to rely upon a regular A/S...

    Thinking of running 18 inch wheels

    IMO, go with the common size of 8.5" and put a 235 or 245 tire on there. Offset can stay at 45 so you don't poke out. If you stick with narrow wheels like 7" with 225s, a 35 offset can help flush out the wheels by bringing them out 10mm. Tires come in many flavors. High Performance tires will...

    Replaced CX-5 OEM Toyo Tires

    Great, thank you. I'm am considering those vs Pirelli Scorpion AS plus 3. You're completely happy with the CC 2's? I have the Toyo A36's and think that right from the start they have been absolutely terrible for. handling.

    Pirelli Scorpion as plus 3 on CX-5 reviews?

    I had a new set of Pirelli Scorpions on my 2011 Escape (traded on 24 CX5 sig). The scorpions were GREAT tires on the Escape solving the road noise problem. I really dislike the Toyo that came on my '24 signature. I am getting all sorts of noise. Very interested in getting Pirrelis for the CX5...

    Question about replacing one tire

    ...The Pirelli's would probably last 70k but I'm sure the tread would be a 2/32's and you wouldn't like the ride. I have about 20k on my Pirelli Scorpions and it looks I can get another 30K out of them before the ride goes to crap, plus you don't want to keep the tires forever due to dry rot.

    When to replace tires?

    I can second the Pirelli scorpion all season plus 3. Just had a set put on a little over a week ago and I'm happy with them. I replaced the OEM Yokohama geolandars on the 17" wheels with 2 at 5/32 and 2 at 4/32 and about ~26k miles.

    Strange noise after new tires

    I recently purchased a complete set of Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3 tires. I now notice a strange sound only between 35-45 mph. It's almost an electronic noise, and seems to come from the front center. The dealer had rebalanced all the tires, no change. I ran my OBD scanner, and nothing shows...

    Thinking of running 18 inch wheels

    So I love the handling of my 2025 CX-5 Turbo, but the rough ride from the stock tire/wheel combo causes me back pain (lumbar problem). It's fine for anything under an hour, so I think I just need a bit more smoothing out. Seems like the 17s would be going too far-I want to keep some of that...

    22" Wheels on a CX-9 (2nd gen 2021)

    https://www.fitmentindustries.com/wheel-offset-gallery/3050266/2021-mazda-cx-9-curva-cff300-ceika-coilovers-pirelli-scorpion-weatheractive Does the owner of this CX-9 on here? I am curious if 285/45R22 does really fit. I won't be lowering so might have a little more room at stock height but I...

    Pirelli Scorpion as plus 3 on CX-5 reviews?

    Same for me (Atlantic Canada). Also purchased mine at Costco. They are going on for their 3rd summer in a few weeks and have been great thus far. Seem to wearing well, too. I am quite happy with them.

    Show me your CX-5 wheels

    I'd like to hear more of your thoughts on how your CX-5 drives with this set up. I'm due for a new wheel and tire set up, and I am currently torn between sticking with the stock 19" size or doing a -1 down to a 18" like you have in order to save wheel weight, and getting a bit more sidewall...

    What size? If you use a wider tire it can have that effect.

    2024 CX-5 GS Ride Quality and Noise Levels

    ...all seasons choices mostly terrain or highway type. I was going to do 17" Michelin Primacy or Continental CrossContact LX25 or even Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3. The 225 75 16 means I might get Michelin Defender LTX. Not as cushy soft as a Primacy? But it's 16" so maybe 🤔 it is cushier. But a...

    Question about replacing one tire

    ...I then went to a Mazda dealer, they said I was fine buying just one, so I did. As it turned out, I decided to replace all 4 with Pirelli Scorpions 10 months later, at 31,700. (I like them. by the way.) Windhand, if you are near south Florida, I still have the replacement Toyo in my closet...

    2024 CX-5 GS Ride Quality and Noise Levels

    Sorry old post but I am debating getting different tires. I came across the AS Plus 3. They are softest riding and quiet tires vs even Michelin Primacy (with acoustic foam). Costs less too. I am stuck. Any updates on those AS Plus 3? I am worried about quality control and I read as it wears...
