I have run the Scorpion Zero A/S for 6 months /10.000 miles. I used to run the regular scorpion zeros and I cant say that the all season are better, but they are certainly not worse. I have scorpion winters from december to march so will be changing to those soon. Unless you have a clear preference for a particular tyre then I’d definitely give them a chance!

I can only speak to 255/50 20” on the L332 btw... RR Vogue 4.4 TDV8 - 11

Mine are continental... And to answer your question? I don’t have a preference as this is the only set I’ve used! BUT, these are incredibly on snow and ice 🧊

Preference of winter tyre? I might look into getting a spare set of alloys and swapping over?


I cant decide if I should go 20" or 21" for winter wheels as I'm moving in 12-18 months a bit further north and think a bigger profile and winter tyres would be wise for local country driving all smug in my new plug!

How much do they retail at or how much did I pay??? Hmmm well, Khan were retailing them at around £3999 I believe? I payed £800 for the wheels, freshly powder coated in black and advertised on fleabay! The tyres were a steel at £300 fitted! Again another fleabay purchase! 👍

Not bad that. Looks like they are doing them for 1440 for the wheels....might even be cheaper if you called them I guess....cant see many 23" wheels flying out the door right now..... I'd say around £250 a corner for tyres on top but a nice set for 2500 new all smug in my new plug!

I had a puncture on the off side rear tyre, which was repaired but still leaked (v slowly) and I started to get a vibration which I assume was because they had to cut some of the foam away. So I've had 4 x Scorpion Zero A/S fitted and kept the front 2 tyres (just over 5mm tread) as spares. More to stop the law of sod giving me another puncture, as that's bound not to happen if I've got 2 tyres in the garage! Laughing

Broadly similar tread pattern to the Verdes, but quite a bit of difference in the detail and they are noticeably quieter at motorway speeds, the difference is surprising.

Was wondering if it is ok to mix the Verde and Zero tyres, as I am considering upgrading to the zeros but don't want to change all 4 at once. Maybe the fronts first, and then the backs? Tom

I’ve ran the Pirelli Scorpion Verde 22’s with “PNCS” system for the past year, and agree they are very quiet, comfortable (for 22’s) and great grip and braking in the wet and dry alike, maybe not the same ultimate grip as the Zero’s but its not a sports car, and hopefully “Verde” means more miles for your money. Whistle “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that?

Older tyres may not have the noise-cancelling system (foam) look on the sidewall of the tyre directly under the letters “PI” in SCORPION, it should be embossed “PNCS”, useful if you’re offered tyres at a discount, they may be old stock.
