Tire lottery - satisfaction measurement. What factory tires are on your Macan EV?

Anybody order 22" wheels with summer tires? which ones did you get?

Tire rack reviewers like the Scorpions, they were the quietest of the A/S performance tires tested..

• What We Liked: The lively steering, test-leading noise comfort, the balance, it's all good.

I just heard from my SA that my 4S has arrived at the dealership and has 20” Pirelli Scorpion all season tires. I previously preferred Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4 tires on my Tesla Y.

@toothsurgeon @quaxon How you like the 20” Pirelli A/S tires, particularly in terms of ride and road noise?

There are apparently several different Pirelli Scorpion all season tires. My Macan 4 came with "Scorpion MS" tires which are not the same tire as the one you are picturing (apparently a lot of Model Y's come with these tires, so I presume they are an EV tire, or come in an EV flavor). I have not challenged these tires much, but I can say they have an unpleasant, loud, singing resonance on asphalt at almost precisely 55 mph indicated. It's very specific, and disappears below 54 and above 56 indicated, so I try to avoid exactly 55 indicated. The problem is, when using the cruise control, when adjusting up or down to match a 55 mph speed limit, I frequently end up at exactly 55 indicated and then have to adjust up or down from that (and yes I realize that 55 indicated is really about 52-53, so I can adjust upward to match the speed limit). Odd to me that this would have been acceptable to Porsche.

So - while I'm waiting for my 4S with my requested SUMMER TIRES on the standard 20' rims - has anyone in the USA received this configuration - and if so - what tire did you receive?

Thanks!

I have no concerns. I may be less picky than others, though.

So what tires would be acceptable for a 21 inch wheels. If I decide to swap what all season tires would offer the best ride?

Do you want the highest performance all seasons that may wear quickly, or all season tires that last longer or are optimized for snow/wet traction? Or do you care, just want a tire with an all season that rides the best and quiet.

I don’t put on many miles. The main consideration is ride quality for my wife who has MS.
