Hi
Anybody have experience with Pirelli Scorpion S/T 235/70R16 - 105H on their Disco?
Can get these at Sears for $80 each, very different then Michelin XPC 235/70R16 105H currently on truck. A new set quoted approx $210 each at NTW.
I'd be interested in hearing anybody elses experience with this or other tires.
I have a 96 Disco SD 5 speed with 125K miles.
thanks |

Arthur,
I'm running the Pirelli Scorpion S/T 235/70 on my '97. I have no complaints and I'm satisfied with them as an on-road tire. As for off-road... just not aggressive enough once it gets wet and muddy.
Cheers,
Brian |

Thanks Brian and Neal
Have either of you run them in snow? I'm in the NE and travel to Maine in the winter.

they are pretty good in the snow. I've never been stuck using them. Slightly worse than the stock Michellins in the mud. |

I would second Neal on that. They ride great on road. Quite quiet.

They are the only option from the stok tires if you want h rated. When I purchased mine, highway travel was very important to. Now I only use my truck for wheeling so I'm swithing to something more progressive. |

I had them, I enjoyed lots, good life. In fact, I have my alloy with one of them with probably 70 life left for sale, if you are interested for spare.- |
