2 weeks in and happy to report that the Pirelli Scorpion Verde tyres are excellent. Quiet, smooth sand excellent grip including in the wet and dustings of snow/ slush |

Right....so.... the verde as mentioned above, but I didn't click....are not the size I want, and I'm not paying another £100 pound a tyre for the all season version in my size... and they would have the wrong speed rating....

Would normally buy top quality correct OE spec tyres and am generally a bit of a Pirelli fan so the choice would be 255/50 20 Scorpions but actually just had 255/55 20 Michelin Latitude Sports fitted and the ride quality and noise reduction are both measurably improved.

I have the scorpion verde all season plus that I use for summer .. winter here they are scary .. slip slide and no traction in more than 3 inches of snow .. cannot say what they are like in Europe ? Prob really good in the winter there .. but here in the -20 range they rubber goes solid and cannot deal with the harsh weather .. summer 😁They are smooth as hell and good all round .. as for size .. make your own mind up on that , for what's good for someone else might not be good for you .. hope ya get what ya want 👍 |

Had 255/55 Verdes on the 2007 FF and really liked them. Found that increasing the pressures to 38psi all round improved the ride as well. The rears tended to wear on the outer edge, but I put that down to driving style on the twisting roads |

I highly recommend the Cooper LTZ all terrain tyre when looking at a 20 inch alternative.

Any thoughts on mitchelin latitude sport 3 tyres, been quoted £204 a corner for 275/45/20, which seems cheap going off prices on the net.comments appreciated Full fat 4.2 Sc
