Question Best All-Season SUV tyre

I've read some other threads with chatter about tyres, but searching (admittedly on my phone) the forum I couldn't find a conclusive thread...

I'm leaning towards pirelli Scorpion Verde all season...but I've previously preferred goodyear products..

Up for vote I've got these contenders:

Pirelli Scorpion Verde All-season
Michelin Cross Climate
Goodyear Vector 4 seaons
Nokian Weatherproof
Other - please comment

Have previously preferred to run touring tyres and have never had all seaons

Curious for specifically xc60 consumer reports

Its kind of hard to answer this poll as I have only tried one all season tyre brand - the Nokians as it happens. I don't know if it's the best though, and in fact I haven't had a chance to try them out in winter conditions yet so I only know what I read about them in the reviews.

They do seem fairly popular on this forum.

Thumbs up

Check out what best tyres to put on an xc90 thread ....plenty of info on there...

I'm running Pirelli scorpion Verde all seasons at the moment and they will go on next time they're due for change....been on 2 years now,20,000 miles in and still showing 7mm of tread on all 4 corners.

If you're interested see ..........www.camskill.co.uk...... for all the different flavours but I recommend 107v XL's.

The Goodyear vector 4 seasons are also very good and my missus is running these on her C30 d5 185 se lux.

Thanks very much.

I think I'll choose between scorp Verde AS and wrangler HP AS when the time comes, see what's best in price.

The other choices seem slightly more snow favourable which in reality I don't need so much.
