The next set I have coming are the Pirelli Scorpion Zero's. I have read a couple of review and everyone seems to like them but I haven't heard from someone running them on a full size. Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks...... :cool:

Im running them on my FS....I think there 276x60R16 V rated...
Over all it makes the truck handle like a pro...almost can't tell I don't have a sway bar..My first set wore out in around 25K miles but that was because I got a bogus tire alignment. I got mine for around 160 tire...they have them for 130 on tire rack. Anything else ya wanna know?

Unbelievable. I recieved confirmation of shipment on Tues of this week and my tires were waiting for me this morning (Thurs). TireRack is on the ball! I will get them mounted this afternoon and after a few miles I'll chip in my .02 on how they perform. After reading the reviews on TireRack, I think I will be pleasantly suprised. Thanks for the input RandomQ.......

I've got them on my truck, 305/40-22's. Only had them about 3 months now, but I like them a lot. They handle great. Too soon to tell about tire wear though. The wear issue is kind of mixed right now. My friend had them on his Burban and they only lasted about a year and a half (285/60-18's I think). My other friend has them on her Expidition (295/45-20's) and they have been on almost 2 years and the tread looks brand new. I don't know the mileage on those 2 sets though.

I have them on my 99 sierra, did not get good mileage out of them. Got 20,000 out of them with proper tire pressure and rotation.

i just got rid of mine, i hate them, they were on there when i got my truck and were wearing uneven, i got them rotated/balnced regular and they still didn improve. my mud terrains ride better on the street imo also.

ya but if your going to be going 100+ you don't want to worry about your retreads falling apart.

I have pirelli scorpion a/t 's on my tahoe. I have put around 50,000 miles on them since I've had it, and I would say there is at least 20,000 miles worth of tread left. These are great tires for everday driving conditions, and do pretty good in the snow too.

It has now been 7 months and almost 6k miles since I started this post. The Scorpion Zeros that I had mounted still look new! The back are 275/55 R17 and handle like an SOB. The front 255/50 R17 are wearing a little on the right side. The truck is pulling a bit to the right also so i need to get the alignment checked. Overall I am tickled pink with them so far. They do follow road slope and depressions in pavement so I have to constantly correct for little twitches but at least i know i have a good contact patch.
Overall i give the Pirelli Scorpion Zeros (Road Tire, not A/T's) 8.5 of 10....:D
