Has anyone had Pirelli P Zero All season tyres on 22inch M Sport wheels? Will they perform on snow in the Alps? I usually drive in London and surrounding areas throughout the year.

I have not tried as i'm planning to swap my standard Conti's when they're worn down to the Pirellis

I do recall the Pirelli All Season 22"s are OEM for the Bentayga so maybe poll an owners' group to get their opinion on the winter behavior of those tires

I just had to swap my 22" contis - I couldn't source the Pirelli All Season tires anyway. The Conti's were back ordered so I was forced to swap my tires with the Pirelli PZero summer tires. So if you think you need tires soon - I would go ahead and buy them now and not wait until you need them like I did.

Great tires!

Depending on the amount of snow and ice you need to drive on, I had mixed results.

They are definitely a "high performance" all season tire. On dry and wet cold roads they did fine. In snow they were not great for me. I am not talking a lot of snow, either. Definitely had to drive much more carefully than what I would consider average performance of an all season tire. (for example, not nearly as good as Pirelli Verde or Conti DWS 06) I ended up curbing all four of my wheels last winter, and I have been driving on snow every winter for 32 years.

I switched to Scorpion Winter for this season.

That's good to know!! Seriously good to hear from someone with snow experience.

Winter snow = winter tires.

Also, I only got 25,000 miles out of the rears.

Anyone drive them in the summer? I've got a non repairable nail in the OEM Conti. As stated above, the tires are backordered and the car is sitting. I'm about to swap all 4 tires for the Pirelli summers, but I have houses in both Phoenix and Flagstaff. I know the all-season tires would be fine for the limited snow I get in Flagstaff (the OEM Conti's did ok). Just curious what I'd give up in summer conditions (not that I'm tracking an X5). I'm thinking these would be a good option and have longer tread life.

ive actually gone for different set up this year on the X5 45e for the london/france/italian Alps season. Dropping the staggered A/S set for square and dropping down to 20" 748's in MattBlack with Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 run flats..

had to have them shipped from germany so still waiting.. will post when on board.

I have the Pirelli Scorpions 21's with the 315's in the back and they are great in the snow. loved them so much i got some for my wifes x5.

Thank you!
Reconsidering this, I think it makes more sense (and it is also safer) to go for dedicated winter wheels and tyres. The sales person at BMW told me that they have an offer, £5k for all 4 lol
