235/55 R18 Tire Review Highlights
Writing about the Pirelli Scorpion Verde

63500 kilometres, and just creeping to the legal limit. On a Tiguan Allspace 132TSI in Victoria Australia. So happy I’m replacing like for like. Chris

Writing about the Hankook iON i*Cept SUV
rated 85%
I have made a lot of research before opting in to Hankook ion icept tires. Although there is not much information available for these yet, the "engineering" concept Hankook explains in their website and the good reviews about the evo3 allowed me to take the risk. Now that they are mounted on my car, I am very happy that I made this decision. The EV readiness has its advantages over "regular" winter tires like quite ride and good feedback and handling, as the sidewall is rigid and the contact surface is more stable. The winter tires I used until now had kind of spongy feeling compared to the summer tires because of their softness, which is absolutely not present with the ions. The compromise, if any, is slight reduction in ride comfort against the sporty feeling, which I welcome. And boy! these are very quiet! On wet roads, the aquaplanning performance is very good and provides confidence. I have also used these under snowy conditions and even pulled a caravan. I must say that the snow grip is very solid, mature and predictible. I drove on the mountain roads fully covered with snow and on fresh snow, the grip is awesome. Almost no slipping. On ice, however, the grip is low, but this is something to be expected on a non-studded winter tire. Heavily recommend this!

Writing about the Bridgestone Blizzak DM V2
rated 86%
Bought DM-V2 for 17 rav4 and had to beach the car on snow to get stuck. Tried a friend’s car with Michelin X-ice and it felt like a budget tire compared to the Bridgestones. Very slippery on the wet dry and snow compared to the Bridgestones. Made X-ice sound
extremely overhyped. DM-V2 is everything you expect from a premium winter tire. Very soft ride, decent wet and dry grip, but I doubt there is better on the snow. Struggles to spin the wheels in snow with traction control off, and only slipped on wet black ice. I drive up steep snow hills when I’m bored just for fun but that gets boring too because it just climbs up like any other day

Writing about the Falken Wildpeak AT AT3WA
rated 78%
I have covered 30,000 miles on these tires and I have ordered a new set of the same tires to replace them with as the tread depth is now down to 5mm which is where winter and wet road performance declines. They would be road legal for another 10-15k miles. They have performed well across deep snow, motorways, gravel and rough tracks. Used in temperatures from -18c to 30+

Writing about the Michelin Primacy 4
rated 90%
Everything was perfect except a little wear. Handling, comfort, brake distance and grip was excellent. After 60.000 km and 5 years, no grip any more. I think this is a acceptable time for wear.

Writing about the Hankook iON Evo AS
rated 81%
Used on a 2023 Tesla Model Y. I down sized to 18" rims. I love this setup! I have the EVO AS SUV with the foam installed. These make little noise and love the look! I have not driven them in winter conditions yet... but I have heard bad things. So far I really enjoy them over the stock tire setup.

Writing about the Pirelli Scorpion Verde
rated 53%
"Rushed" purchase of two tires due to road trip puncture. Quickly switched them to the front due to their tendency to lose grip on wet corner far quicker the the pair of continentals on the other axle. The understeer is much more controllable with them up front vs the unpredictable oversteer when fitted at the back. This understeer is not gradual, but comes on suddenly. Quite comfortable and low noise, but will see how this changes as they wear more. Wear is not great compared to the Continentals, almost catching up to the older tires tread depth in only a few years. Appear to track well on uneven roads, and responsive with spirited driving on windy roads. Not great with aquaplaning, floating at much less speed than the continentals. Braking, wet and dry seems to be fine, and tires has responded well to emergency situations sucessfully.

Writing about the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6
rated 79%
I don't recommed Bridgestone Enlinten Technology because it is making the tires uneven. I had to buy another 5th Bridgestone tire to test this and this one was also oval. The tire manufacture refuse to replace the tires because they see nothing wrong with it. The other tires that I bought are round, and the car glides on the highway. The other five brand new Bridgestone Turanza tires are sitting in the basement. They are total garbage and I don't want them. To test if tires are round, simply drive for 5 minutes with a cup of water on the dashboard to test it. If the water spills, the test is failed.

Writing about the Michelin Latitude Cross
rated 80%
Been using this tire on two volvo XC70's over the last 10 years and have done probably 80k miles with them (3 sets). They are very sure footed in nearly all situations - the only thing they are not as good as cross climate2's (my XC60) is bump rebound mid bend (on pot holes)- the rear can skip slightly. Really good on gravel wet or dry - mud also good - snow: better than cross climate2 for braking and traction (UK has wet snow and slush) - tho not as good as a proper winter in these conditions.
Ive towed cars out of muddy fields with these tires - bit more difficult when worn down.
Good stability at motorway speeds - but they dont have the ultimate grip of the new all season tires - the design came out in 2009!! and hasn't been changed so pretty impressive .
As I use them on small roads with very rough edges and have to avoid tractors and lorries they are confidence inspiring that they won't damage easily.
Highway they are a bit noisy compared to the cross climate 2 and certainly not as fuel efficient. but for poor road surfaces and some light off roading they are really good with strong sidewalls. cannot get my size now so will have to either change wheels or goto another tire type.
