I'll buy them again

When the tires were new they were fantastic. Here we are 20,000 miles later and one has failed at the seam. The other three are so loud you can't hear yourself think! Never again! I will go to a different brand and the customer service from simple tire during this fiasco is complete trash. I'll take my business to the local shops from now on!

These tires have fantastic grip in the wet and dry, and they also work well on dirt roads. I just went out and checked the tread depth after about 4k miles this summer, and it doesn't look like they will be anywhere near the projection that Pirelli indicates. I find that a bit disappointing, but not necessarily surprising. Manufacturers don't expect to hear back from tire owners, and they make you jump through so many hoops, that very few people actually get their tires replaced on warranty. I've pushed them hard in acceleration and cornering, both in the wet and dry, and I'm impressed with their stability. Forcing a push or a wag in my 2004 VW TDI Wagon is challenging, and the response is gradual and predictable. Just the kind of thing you want in an emergency situation. Overall, I love the tires, time will tell how well they wear. Siping is pretty generous, and I think that I'll leave them on through the first snow to see how well the compare to my studless snow tires. If I am able, I'll come back and update this review at that time later this winter (2024-25). One thing of note, one tire came with damage to the bead, and it was very difficult to get it through the Simple Tire Representative's head that it CAME THAT WAY. After I finally got her to understand that I picked them up from FedEx that way, she sent out a replacement via pack mule.

I purchased these Pirelli after owning Bridgestone tires. So far I really like these the ride is quiet and comfortable and wear is great. Both dry and wet weather handling are very good. I only have driven a few thousand miles but have nothing but positive results.
