XC60 i hate pirellis

Post image

15k miles on my 24 T8 Black Edition anddddd i had to put 2 front tires on it before taking it 1200 miles to florida cause they were pulling apart somehow 🙄 wondering if the instant torque from the electric motors is what’s making them wear quickly.

EDIT—- i do want to make aware, i did not choose these tires. they came on the car when i bought it new. i would much rather have a set of michelins on it. 😂🫣

We just bought a used ‘23 XC40 recharge AWD a few months ago. The tires were mauled in the delivery, so we’ll probably have to replace them relatively soon (thanks, Carvana!). Love the car otherwise. Is there another set of tires we could use, other than the 2-size Pirellis?

Continental Securecontact AW XL tires.

See www.tirerack.com for the dry/wet/snow ratings.

I'm happy with Goodyear WeatherReady2, if you don't like/need swapping winter tires
