I decided to go with a very quiet ride and chose the Pirelli SCORPION VERDE™ ALL SEASON PLUS II.

I really love them, especially since I do a lot of long distance trips. Great handling in wet and dry with fabulous breaking.
I run those on my wife's Pathfinder...good tires, we've been pleased.

JC, did you opt for the Verde 2s over the 3s for any particular reason?

I'm between these 2 and the Defenders... Defenders appear to be out of stock atm.

I went with the Verde II since the III was not yet available. My father and brother both had those tires on their vehicles and I was impressed with the quiet ride and the wet performance. I also checked out the review on Tire Rack and that sealed the deal.


FYI .. My dad is a religious Michelin guy and when I asked him how he likes the Pirelli's versus the Michelins all he will say is "lets talk about something else" .. :cool:

I’m on my second set of the Michelin Defender LTX M/S2..love these tires and they last & last…the ride is excellent and perform great in the snow…I bought them believe it or not from my Ford Dealer! i was going to buy them from Tire Rack and my Ford Service Rep told me they would price match and gave me an additional $10.00 off per tire…

Anyone else upgrade to the Michelins? I'm on the fence to upgrade because my Hankooks only have 20k miles on them but feel like I'm missing out on better ride quality and less noise!

Costco is still running the $150 off a set of 4 Michelins installed. They extended it into October.
