Pirelli Scorpion WeatherActive. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Longer-lasting tread life; Comfortable driving experience; . OVERVIEW: The Pirelli Scorpion WeatherActive is a touring, all weather tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. This model has high performance tire sizes as well. Pirelli offers a 60,000 mile treadwear warranty with this tire.Excellent all weather traction is offered. The asymmetric tread design is able to closely follow the road surface throughout the year. The special compound keeps rubber flexibility in summer and winter temperatures. These elements increase traction in dry, wet, and winter conditions, while also promoting great performance on ice- and snow-covered roads. They guarantee a safe driving experience. Also, the tire sports large grooves, which increase traction on wet surfaces. They eliminate water and slush from the footprint, protecting the tire against hydroplaning.The asymmetric tread design and its consistent road contact boost overall controllability. These elements also enhance steering responsiveness and driving stability. The steering response time is faster and more precise to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. Large elements and their siping detail improve cornering and braking. As a result, these elements enable the driver to have confident control over the vehicle at all times.The asymmetric tread design and the special rubber compound upgrade the tire's service life. The ideal tread design can evenly distribute driving pressure across the footprint, while the special compound slows the treadwear rate down. Their combination reduces the chance of irregular and premature wear formations across the tread. This significantly upgrades the tire's tread life.The Pirelli Scorpion WeatherActive guarantees a quiet and comfortable driving experience. The asymmetric tread design and its close road contact are able to reduce road and tread noise while the tires are in motion. The footprint channels airwaves through, preventing them from coming into contact with tread elements or generating noise. This guarantees the passengers' driving enjoyment.All weather tires receive the three mountain peak and snowflake (3PMS) symbol for their exceptional winter weather performance. They are all season tires with extra winter weather grip, in order to guarantee safer year-round durability. This ensures their true and secure driving ability throughout the year. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
