Pirelli Scorpion STR Tires

The Pirelli Scorpion STR is a highway terrain, all season tire made for SUVs and light trucks. This model has some touring, passenger vehicle sizes as well.

The STR in the model name stands for Stability Traction Rating. This model was made with a European tread design. The optimal tread pattern enables the tire’s constant surface contact, which significantly upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. This provides the driver’s exceptional control over the vehicle at all times.

The tread design and the silica compound work together to enhance the all weather traction. The optimal tread elements and the durable silica elements enhance the grip on the road surface in dry, wet and winter weather conditions. The silica compound optimizes the tire’s rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures, while the tread elements firmly grip the road surface at all times. The optimal groove placement along the tread area disperses water and slush from the footprint, actively avoiding hydroplaning in the process. This results in the tire’s stronger wet weather performing ability.

Th symmetric tread design’s optimal road contact enables the tire to elongate the usability. The symmetric pattern manages to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, cornering and braking avoid irregular and premature wear formations. The silica compound, on the other hand, optimizes the rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures, ensuring a slower wear manner. This combination significantly extends the tread and service life.

The reinforced twin steel belt structure allows the tire to enhance the load durability. The internal structure’s strengthened elements maintain the ideal tire shape under the load and driving pressure. This significantly boosts the overall load capacity, enabling the tire to securely handle heavier loads as well. As the tire does not deform, it is able to effectively conquer heavy load capacity.

The Pirelli Scorpion STR also boosts the on-road comfort levels. The tread pattern’s optimal shoulder ribs prevent airwaves from entering the footprint and coming into contact with the tread elements. In this manner, the tire is able to significantly lower the road and tread pattern noise heard in the vehicle’s cabin while the tires are in motion. This results in a quiet and comfortable driving experience.

This tire model was manufactured as the original equipment tire of select Ford vehicles.

Not all tire sizes are suitable for all vehicle types. Please refer to the item specifications for accurate information about vehicle type fitment for this particular size.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
