That's interesting to hear. The rubber should hold up longer than that on Michelins but environmental conditions can have an effect.

The Scorpion portion of the name designates it's meant for SUVs while Cinturato is for sedans. Both are great.

You're absolutely right. This video isn't too terribly old but it could use updating. I stuck to the truly truck and SUV tires and not the grand touring tires, which is why the CrossClimate2 is absent. The WeatherReady 2 and the Vredestein Quatrac Pro+ are new to the market and both are proving to be excellent picks. I'll add this to the list of videos I need to create.

Fair point. Nokian tends to be a little more niche for colder climates but they make excellent tires.

@@tiregrades1025 You are spot on I am from Montreal, Canada. Keep up the good work, cheers.

@@padraigadhastair4783 Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for the feedback. Seriously. It's helpful to know what people find useful. Take care.

The more on-road focused a tire is the better it usually is with snow.

They're not much of a performance tire and designed for larger vehicles. They may ride a little firm on a Mustang but they may work out okay for daily driving if you found a compatible size. Be sure and check the load rating and speed rating. Good luck.

CrossClimate2 are great tires but the WeatherActive seems to have finally beaten them.

You're probably right. I don't have a clue what I'm doing in regards to RUclips!

Some do report this problem. I still always recommend checking your alignment if you haven't already done so when you have vibrations. While it can be the tires, it's often alignment related. Good luck and be sure to check out the recommended alternatives.

Sorry to hear you had a bad experience. That's very unusual. Could have been a bad batch or alignment problems. Checking your alignment is a good call if you haven't had one in quite a while or you've recently hit a curb or something that could have tweaked the suspension.

The ride is very rough for my Edge ST.

@@drek782 Sorry to hear you had a bad experience. You may want to consider a Grand Touring or even a Standard Touring tire. Grand Touring tires should offer a smoother ride quality.

@ honestly it’s more or less the treadware rating… higher the rating harder the tire compound. The pirelli active weather has a 700 rating, the tires they replaced the OEM hankook had a 500 rating. I’m looking for something in between that, better in upstate NY winter weather than the OEM but with not as good treadware as the activeweather.

@@drek782 Yep. It's a balancing act between different features.

All performance scores are compiled from customer feedback. Only tires that have a substantial amount of feedback are included in the review process. Here's the relative explainer from the About page (tiregrades.com/about/) on TireGrades.com: 100% CUSTOMER FEEDBACK RATINGS I want to be transparent that all of the tires are rated by 100% customer feedback. The great thing about reviews based on customer experiences is that they cast a very wide net. When averaged out over a large number of responses, you begin to get a very good assessment of a tire’s strengths and weaknesses. As a Tire Rack affiliate, I scour their massive database of tire review statistics and pluck out the gems that offer the most bang for your buck. It’s easy enough to find the best-performing tire, but you’ll likely pay through the nose for it. Often, you can get surprisingly close to the pinnacle of performance while saving a significant amount.

Definitely a good value tire that doesn't always get the attention it deserves.

I liked their AT3 tires when I had a jeep, but Cooper unfortunately doesn't offer a high quality all season choice for my Blazer. Had to go with another brand.

​@@kurtp5379 I'd be curious to know what you decided to go with and how you felt they've performed.

@@tiregrades1025, I live in south central Kansas. We normally have mild winter's. But I still wanted a tire that was capable in light snow. I watched many tire review videos and field evaluations performed by, Tire Rack. I decided the best all year, all season tire for me was the, Continental Cross Contact LX 25 tires. I have only had them a couple of months, but have noticed a smoother, more comfortable ride.

​, sorry for the delay. I live in southcentral Kansas, so not much annual snowfall. I settled on the best all around, all season tire for me was the, Continental Cross Contact LX 25. So far I have noticed a more comfortable ride. This tire also offers a rim protection feature, which is an added bonus. Field evaluations and customer reviews I found here and at Tire Rack mentioned this tire also performs decently in light snow, which helped me to make my final decision.

Has your experience with them been god enough that you'd buy them again?

Fair point. Here's the noise ratings for the tires included in this video: Michelin Defender2 = Road Noise: 9.0 of 10 Goodyear Assurance MaxLife = Road Noise: 8.2 of 10 Continental TrueContact Tour = 8.7 of 10 Yokohama AVID Ascend LX = Road Noise: 8.7 of 10 Hankook Kinergy ST = Road Noise: 8.7 of 10 More granular stats are usually in the linked reviews in the video description if you come across another video where I don't call out a stat that's important to you and you don't want to wait on me to reply. That said, I do try to respond to comments in a timely fashion. Good luck and happy motoring.

Jack stands would be safer. I wouldn't recommend trying it with just one jack. Good luck!

Honestly, as long as these tires all last for 50 miles at speeds up to 50 mph (which they do) they are living up to their promise. Hopefully you're not pushing them beyond that. ;)

Thank YOU for watch. Glad you found it helpful.

Sorry, no. It's designed specifically for Walmart to make the tire cheaper to produce so they can sell it for a much lower price. There are similarities but it's a very different tire.

@tiregrades1025 Okay. Walmart says on sale, but out of stock? Are they fooling people? I may go to Costco for Bridgestone, which I have been using for 35-40 yrs now. Never have a flat tire or any issue at all.

@@manusharma5059 Bridgestone is excellent. I prefer them to Goodyear personally but that doesn't mean Goodyear is bad. Good luck!

I suppose it's fair to say that budget is a relative term. In this case, these are tires that are designed to last and maximize bang-for-the-buck. They're not super-cheap off-brand budget tires though. I'll try to clarify what i mean in the future. Thanks for the feedback.

Ratings are based on real customer feedback.

I'd go with the General G-MAX RS if you're interested in one of the tires in this video. It's the best bang for the buck. If money is no object then I'd go for the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S because they're the best performance tire that you can daily drive. These are summer tires so depending on where you live you may want an ultra high performance all-season tire. If that's the case I'd go with the Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS+. It's a good performance/value tire. It's a shame the Pirelli P Zero AS Plus 3 doesn't come in that size, otherwise I'd go with that. I hope this helps.

Scratch the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S. I forgot to check if it came in your size. It doesn't. The Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 does and it's the runner up to the Michelin in my opinion.

@@tiregrades1025 I live in Turkey Actually I was just looking for summer tires But I can think about it in all 4 seasons, if my wishes can be presented in a single product. Tires I'm thinking of for summer continental PremiumContact 7 Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 continental SportContact 7 Michelin Primacy 4+ continental UltraContact I want good handling, comfort and silence. But I also like to put my vehicle in sport mode and speed up. In this case, should I choose a tire from the sport class? What does sport tire mean? What is its necessity? What are the pros and cons?

@@ekremekrem6649 I'm not as familiar with these tires but generally speaking, comfortable and quiet tires fall into the "Grand Touring" tire category and they should grip more than adequately for the occasionally spirited drive through the turns. They will also last a lot longer than a performance-oriented sport tire which has softer rubber. They also put performance first and tend to ride harsher and can sometimes be louder due to the more aggressive tread patterns. Michelin tires often good for doing everything well but they usually cost the most. The Michelin Primacy 4+ might be the best choice of the bunch for you. It's a "Grand Touring" Summer tire and should be comfortable and quiet while still handling very well though not quite to the level of a high performance sport tire.

Thanks for sharing this. Glad to know my efforts are appreciated. Take care.

You're welcome my friend.

That's an impressive testimony for the original WeatherReady being able to handle South Dakota winters! No doubt the WeatherReady 2 will be even better.

The Cinturato WeatherActive is the better tire, but the P7 AS Plus 3 is not far behind and usually found for a lot less money.

Good to hear. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Solid advice.

They're both great but the Cinturato WeatherActive is a slightly better pick. Good luck!

Glad you liked it.

IKR? Low effort! ;)

Pirelli Cinturato WeatherActive would be an excellent tire to check out if budget is not an issue. The General AltiMAX RT45 is a good mid-tier all-season tire with good stats across the board and is significantly less expensive.

@@tiregrades1025 okay also what about 245/45/19 would you recommend the same tires? also do you think with similar tires to the 18” rim will the 19 ride better ?

@@xbotbananaboi7064 The ride quality should be the same for both sizes because the sidewall height for the tire is the same 45% of 245mm = 110.25mm or 4.34 inches. If you're also buying wheels at the same time you want to make sure they will fit since the rolling diameter of the 19" wheels is going to be significantly more than the 18" wheels with the same tire width and sidewall height. Check out the calculator on the following page: tiregrades.com/tire-anatomy/tire-size/what-is-wheel-diameter/

@@tiregrades1025 theyll fit lol, but thank you for the link it is useful just to be sure, but just to reiterate, for comfort and noise, you would d take the pireli cinturanto wether active over the p7 as plus 3 ?

@@xbotbananaboi7064 I haven't personally tried the Cinturatos myself but current feedback from customers is excellent. In general though, the v-groove directional tires can sometimes be a little noisier so that could be a factor. Otherwise, the P7 AS Plus 3s aren't as new and have an outstanding track record with some of the highest marks for comfort. I don't think you can go wrong with either, but that said, as a newer tire gets more miles from customers and more feedback comes in, the general sentiment can change so the AS Plus 3 is the safer pick.

It is. I should have made that more clear in the title. I'll also try to add one for all-season truck and SUV tires to the queue.

Actually, the tires are ranked specifically by customer feedback. Unfortunately, all-terrain tires are all fairly terrible in the rain. Glad you've had good experience with the Coopers.

Glad you found it helpful!

Air has 77% Nitrogen an 23 % Oxygen by mass. How Nitrogen molecular size is larger than Air? The Atomic numer of NItrogen is 7 and that of oxygen is 8.

No, thank YOU! ;)

A new tire on the market worth checking out that's shaping up to be the new king is the Pirelli Cinturato WeatherActive: ruclips.net/video/oQh_9eL5jWY/видео.html

Unfortunately, for rain the best option is to go with an on-road oriented all-terrain tire like the Falken WildPeak A/T Trail or Nitto Nomad Grappler. Off-road tires, MT, RT, or Off-Road All-Terrains like the K02 can't be driven on aggressively or at higher speeds in the rain without a little "pucker factor" to say the least.

Sorry to hear you've had issues with KO2s. That's a lot of money to drop on a set of tires. They definitely need to be dependable on and off road. If you decide to try them again make sure you adhere to the warranty requirements if you encounter quality issues again. Off-Road Optimized All Terrain tires generally are very poor in the rain but owners tend to have had the best experiences with the ones in this video. I recommend swapping to On-Road Optimized for better rain traction on the streets but that usually runs counter to the goals of owning a set of Off-Road Optimized tires. Tires are often about tradeoffs unfortunately. Good luck my friend.

To be fair, all-terrain tires on the whole are terrifying in rain. But these are the ones that have been rated the best by owners.

@@tiregrades1025 in your experience, what would be a good wet truck tire? Its been very hard to narrow down.

@@BeardedRaven Essentially, Off-Road all terrain tires will all perform poorly, but On-Road all terrain tires like the Falken WildPeak A/T Trail jump up in wet on-road performance but obviously drop off in their off-road abilities. Stepping even further away from all-terrain capabilities to something to a Touring All Season tire like the Pirelli Scorpion WeatherActive will dramatically improve wet traction. If an off-road all terrain tire is what you need, unfortunately the tires in this video are as good as it gets. It's the nature of the chunky block design and an inevitable tradeoff.

@@tiregrades1025 thanks for taking the time to help.

Primarily to get eyes on your tires and help ensure you maintain your tire manufacturer's warranty. This varies between manufacturers so you'll want to check the requirements. In general, it's just a good practice but not required.

If you're interested, you'll want to hit Pinky's here in Charlotte and get a Pinky Dog. ;)

Correct. It does affect the wheel assembly diameter (wheel + tire) though.

Damn good tires though since doing this review the Pirelli Cinturato WeatherActive has become an amazing tire to consider.

No, thank YOU! ;)
