π‘ Is the Pirelli Scorpion Winter 2 305/40R21 a Good Tire?
The Pirelli Scorpion Winter 2 305/40R21 is a winter tire designed for high-performance SUVs and luxury crossovers. It delivers strong snow and ice traction with adequate dry road handling thanks to its directional tread pattern and specialized winter compound. Ride comfort is good for a winter tire though road noise is noticeable at highway speeds, and tread life is moderate as expected from winter-focused rubber compounds. Rated 3.5/5 by TirePath, it excels in cold weather conditions but lacks the year-round versatility of all-season alternatives. Best suited for drivers in snow-prone climates who prioritize winter safety over seasonal tire changes. Currently priced from $546.4, it is available through major online tire retailers.
