Best SUV Tires? Pirelli vs Bridgestone

- Who buys a new car and then immediately buys new tires? My husband does! I ended up waiting 27,000 miles. There was still life left on the tires but they were making me so unhappy for all the reasons I mentioned in this video.
See why I replaced my Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season tires with the Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra All Season tires! (Hint: noise)
Thanks to Bridgestone for gifting me these tires: www.bridgestonetire.com/tire/...

I have Alenza’s on my 09 XC90 and I love them! Excellent wet traction!
Tire Rack and Discount Tire both have better performing tires than those ultras. Like, Perelli Scorpion Weatheractive, Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3, Continental Cross Contact LX25, Michelin Cross Climate 2, Yokohama Geolander CV GO58 and even, Goodyear Assurance Weather Ready.
Here in Northern Europe our Winters are sub zero and long and dark, Continental , Nokian, Vredestein are the favourite ask anyone here , I don't see Bridgestone recommended anywhere, looking at these tires they look like they do not have enough Sipes to be flexible in deep snow, I am male I do not care about tread pattern I care about the traction and the Tire compound and what's best in a blizzard with my family onboard in a near 2000kg car, not saying they are bad tires but we go with what works for us, I know the compounds of Euro tires vs US tires are completely different with the same brands Euro tires having a softer stickier compound. I also know our tires are more expensive, so they are a huge investment for us. I could not see these All seasons tires being adequate for our needs.
My truck needs a new set of all-season tires, and I was on the fence as to which brand to go with, choice being Bridgestone or Pirelli. I was leaning towards Bridgestone, and this video has definitely helped in the final decision (Bridgestone - ALENZA AS ULTRA). Thank you. You actually settled a bit of a dispute between hubby and myself; I won, LOL.
Ooh, I love that! I can tell you that months later, I’m still enjoying my tires.
Informative video ! thanks! :D My BMW came with this wheels and was wondering ig they were good or If I should change them
tread wear cannot be compared from brand to brand. A 500 A A tire from brand X may wear faster than a 460 A A tire from Brand Y despite the '500' rating. Tread wear can only be compared to other tires from the same brand as it is a rating of wear from the (brand's) control tire. Even though Tire rack explains this, a lot of ppl still compare treadwear ratings. I look at the rated mileage warranty and the traction (AA, A, B) and the temperature (AA, A, B) ratings more than treadwear numbers.... Oh, I also look at price. Toyo, General, or Michelin for my current garage....
Ms. Fadra, thanks, I enjoyed the video. I'm not writing this as an endorsement for Bridgestone, simply wanted to underline that I agree with your statement about factory mounted tires. I purchased a new Honda Accord sedan in Feb. of 2016 - it sported Michelin and while new they preformed well in all aspects; plus I had used Michelin in the past on other vehicles with satisfaction. However after nearly three years and approximately 20K miles, even though they still had sufficient tread, I noticed that they were beginning to lose grip when wet and especially in curves. During my research, I discovered, as you had, that brand named tires acquired in bulk by auto manufacturers are not identical to the same brand tires available for purchase by the general public. Like you, I too did quite a bit of comparison and found Bridgestone Turanza Quiettrack 'checked all the boxes' for my car and driving habits. The first thing I noticed was that the Bridgestones were much quieter/smoother than the Michelin which came with the car. Four years later, I'm still pleased with Turanza.
Thanks for sharing. Not knocking Pirelli but my eyes were opened as well to the difference between OEM tires and aftermarket tires. I’m so thrilled with the Bridgestone Alenzas.
there's a little bit of a difference from the pirellis to the Bridgestone of road noise but with me being an over-the-road driver we did what we call tire siping and that would give the tire a little bit better ride of cutting through all junk
Great review! Had a 22 of the same car and regarding the road noise, it does not help that the car does not have acoustic glass, a big miss by Volvo IMHO.
There’s a lot more I expected from Volvo TBH
Bridgestone are horrible. I had them on my 2023 Escalade
I swapped out for Michelin
I'd put on General Tires before Bridgestone
Also keep in mind OEM tire warranties are much more limited than the warranty you'll get in an aftermarket purchase from the same mfg and tire brand!
Good to know! I honestly had no idea there was a difference before I worked with Bridgestone on this.
Bridgestone was too soft, I had to pump them up more. I went back to the pirelli
I noticed that too. I always needed to add 2-3 lbs more than spec for mine to perform better
Did you say they are good for about 80,000 miles???
Yes, they have a limited warranty up to 80,000 miles!
I have the Alenza A/S sport on my car such a sub par tire 8k miles loud don't like to stop as for the ride... Garbage ! If bought new tires and still that loud I'd be mad.
