These are a great replacement for both stock and many other AT tyres.  Great handling on both wet and dry.  Handle well on sand, gravel or rocky terrain.  Great all rounder and well suited for most owners.  Buy on Black Friday special for the best value

A month or so 265/70R17 3000 February 18, 2026
This is my second set of these tyres.   I had no hesitations purchasing again after the great experience of my first set.   I got 80k kilometres (rotating 5 tyres) out of the last set still with plenty of tread left and could have feasibly got another 20k had it not been for an upcoming big trip.   These tyres have quit an aggressive pattern for an all-terrain (so looks good as well) but the on road behaviour is excellent.  I went with a narrower profile and slightly smaller overall size with my latest set (but still larger than OEM).   The smaller size makes the handling a little bit more nimble but the NVH improvement is what is really noticeable,  not sure if this only due to the smaller size or changes/improvements to the compound.I've only managed a few hundred km's towing with some easy off-roading thus far but no complaints or noticeable adverse traits.I got these tyres at 50% off during a black friday sale so the value for money is hard to beat.   Full price probably changes that equation,  but any decent 4wd tyre these days is pricey.Overall excellent tyre that I would highly recommend.

As the large review on this site said. They are super quiet on the road. Significant compared to the cheaper tires on the vehicle previously. On road grip, feel and comfort all excellent. They don’t feel slippery on wet road either.I’ve done about 200km on dirt roads so far. They were the same as on road. Comfort and grip. I’ve only done a few hours of more aggressive off roading and for what I do they were fine for that.Fuel consumption is also down close to 2L per 100Km to the previous set.I purchased them on a 40% odd sale too. So yeah, just fantastic.

Great tyres for everyday use, quiet on roads and performs reasonably well when off the beaten track. They are not Mud Terrains so don’t expect them to perform like MTs. But for most off-road situations they are surprisingly good. Have done over 100000kms and still going strong and quiet.  They work reasonably well in the wet although driving too aggressively in the wet as with any tyre will result in loss of traction. Shopping around can get decent pricing compared to other brands. From my point of view great value for money and suites 4WDs that spend more time on road vs off road but when off road the tyres perform very well. As a bonus they are also quiet even after 100000kms.

The tyres about from a constant shudder are the worst tyres ever in the wet.  Slow speed round a roundabout and it starts to slide in 2wd.  Stock standard car except tyres, the Pirelli Scorpion road tyres are great so I had high expectations with these, I have never been so disappointed with a purchase

Exceptional tyres that are tough as nails. I've done over 35k KMs, some over very rough terrain and towing a 2.5t caravan over highways, Oodnadatta Track, Great Central Road, Ningaloo region, Gibb River Road, Savannah Way. They are solid performers in the dry and wet, and can handle tough and rocky 4wd tracks plus sand with ease. They struggle in mud but that's normal for ATs. Tread wear has been great and even. Sidewalls solid - on Gibb River a sharp rock created a gash but the protected sidewall prevented a puncture and tyre still going strong 15k KMs later. I'm running BFG KO2s on my caravan and performance has been similar to these.

62500 klms and maybe 10000 to go but have just put another set on my car. Most of those klms were towing a 2 and a half tonne caravan on black top corrugated dirt outback WA, NSW. Never a problem. Can not fault this tyre. Best I’ve ever had, from a retired truck driver.

I mostly love these tyres. I feel very confident using them on all surfaces except deep mud, which I avoid. I especially love the wet grip and have never hydroplaned on these. The wet grip is still excellent after 50,000 km.Fuel economy seems the same as the OEM tyres that realistically had zero off road capabilities.For the first 18,000km the tyres were whisper quiet. However, since then I have been hounded by a howling wolf pack - worst between about 60 and 80 km/h, and on smooth bitumen. Maybe if I'd had them balanced every 10k it would have made a difference? Balancing since the wolf pack started howling has made no difference.I previously had Scorpion ATRs on a 2002 Pajero. The AT Plus seem better in most respects. The ATRs did hydroplane, and I wasn't as confident with them off the bitumen. But the ATRs were quiet on bitumen.

Very smooth comfortable tyre. I’ve had Wildpeaks (2nd favourite tyre) Nitto ridge grapplers, handbooks, Maxxis Razr, and the pirellis are the most comfortable and nicest ride I’ve had. Wet wether grip is excellent, dry is as good as you can get.

I recently outfitted my Triton with a set of Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus tires, and I couldn't be happier with the performance. These tires have truly transformed my driving experience, especially on the challenging terrains and diverse conditions of Tasmania.From the moment I hit the gravel roads, I noticed an immediate improvement in traction and control. The Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus tires provide exceptional grip, making driving on loose surfaces a breeze. Whether it's navigating through rocky paths or sandy tracks, these tires handle it all with ease.Wet roads are no match for these tires either. Tassie's notoriously unpredictable weather means I'm often driving on wet, slippery surfaces. The Pirelli Scorpions offer incredible stability and confidence, even during heavy downpours. I feel secure knowing that these tires are designed to perform exceptionally well in wet conditions, reducing the risk of hydroplaning and ensuring a smooth, controlled ride.When it comes to tackling snow, the Scorpion All Terrain Plus tires shine brightly. Winter trips to the highlands have become much more enjoyable and worry-free. The tire's advanced tread design provides excellent traction on snowy and icy roads, giving me the confidence to drive through winter wonderlands without any hesitation.One of the biggest highlights for me has been the tires' performance during 4WD adventures in the Tasmanian bush. These tires are built to handle the rugged and unpredictable terrain of the bushlands. Whether I'm climbing steep inclines, descending rocky trails, or maneuvering through muddy patches, the Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus tires deliver unparalleled durability and grip. They truly excel in providing the off-road capability I need for my outdoor excursions.Despite their rugged performance, these tires are impressively quiet and compliant on the highway. The advanced design minimizes road noise, ensuring a comfortable and peaceful drive, even at high speeds. Additionally, the strong sidewalls provide extra protection and stability, giving me peace of mind when navigating rough terrain and sharp obstacles.In summary, the Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus tires have exceeded my expectations in every aspect. They are a perfect match for my Triton, offering superb performance on gravel, wet roads, snow, and during 4WDing in the Tasmanian bush. I highly recommend these tires to anyone looking for a reliable and versatile all-terrain tire. They have significantly enhanced my driving experience, and I'm confident they will do the same for others.
