The Scorpion AS Plus 3 is Pirelli's Crossover/SUV Touring All-Season tire developed for the drivers of crossovers, SUVs and pickup trucks who want a smooth and comfortable ride with all-season confidence designed to go the extra mile, mile after mile. Specifically built for North American drivers, the Scorpion AS Plus 3 focuses on increased ride and noise comfort and longer tread life along with consistent traction in dry, wet and wintry conditions, including light snow.
Utilizing functionalized polymers, the advanced tread compound is designed to generate higher levels of traction and provide longer mileage than previous-generation tires. The carefully engineered, asymmetric tread pattern features minimized void space for maximum contact with the road surface to increase overall grip and improve wear characteristics. Larger, sequence-tuned shoulder blocks help improve dry handling while minimizing tread noise, and the optimized mold profile helps further distribute forces for even wear and enhanced wet performance. Evenly distributed grooves and channels are designed to work in unison for predictable wet performance and hydroplaning resistance. The Scorpion AS Plus 3 employs a variety of full-depth and 3D sipes focused on retaining slippery and inclement weather traction throughout the tire's life. Horizontal 3D sipes combine with vertical sipes in the shoulders for increased biting edges while retaining good clear road handling characteristics. Zig-Zag and deep sipes on the inboard tread blocks offer consistent traction as the tire wears through wet conditions and in snow and on ice.
The internal construction of the Scorpion AS Plus 3 consists of a two-ply polyester casing designed to blend handling with comfortable road manners. Robustness and high-speed stability are ensured by twin steel belts which are reinforced by two polyamide cap plies.
El neumático Scorpion AS Plus 3 de Pirelli pertenece a la categoría: Turismo Para Toda Estación (Crossover/SUV) y fue desarrollado para conductores de utiliautos (crossover), vehículos utilitarios deportivos (SUV, por sus siglas en inglés) y picops, que desean un andar tranquilo, confortable y confiable durante todas las estaciones del año milla por milla. Fabricado específicamente para conductores de Norte América, el Scorpion AS Plus 3, se enfoca en proporcionar un mejor andar, niveles bajos de ruido y un desgaste lento, conjuntamente con una tracción consistente en condiciones secas, mojadas e invernales, incluyendo superficies con poca nieve.
Utilizando polímeros con funciones específicas, el compuesto de caucho avanzado, ha sido diseñado para generar niveles altos de tracción y proporcionar un mayor número de millas que la generación anterior de neumáticos. El patrón asimétrico de la huella, cuidadosamente diseñado, minimiza los espacios para mantener mayor contacto con la superficie de la carretera y aumentar la tracción general, a la vez de disminuir el desgaste. Bloques o tacos grandes en los hombros entonados en secuenciaayudan a mejorar la maniobrabilidad sobre superficies secas, a la vez de minimizar el ruido de la huella. El perfil optimizado del molde ayuda, aún más, a distribuir las fuerzas para obtener un desgaste parejo y mejor desempeño en condiciones mojadas. Ranuras y canales distribuidos uniformemente, han sido diseñados para trabajar conjuntamente, y obtener un rendimiento predecible en condiciones mojadas, a la vez de aumentar la resistencia al deslizamiento sobre agua (hydroplaning). El Scorpion AS Plus 3 utiliza una variedad de pequeñas ranuras profundas y tridimensionales "3D", enfocadas a retener tracción en condiciones resbalosas o inclementes durante el ciclo de vida del neumático. Pequeñas ranuras 3D horizontales combinadas con verticales, en los bloques de los hombros, aumentan la cantidad de bordes adherentes, mientras mantienen buenas características de conducción sobre carreteras limpias. Los bloques en el sector interno, poseen ranuras profundas tipo zigzag, para proporcionar tracción consistente sobre superficies mojadas, con hielo o nieve, a medida que el neumático se desgasta.
La construcción interna del Scorpion AS Plus 3 cuenta con dos capas de poliéster diseñadas para combinar maniobrabilidad con el desempeño normal en las carreteras. Fortaleza y estabilidad a velocidades elevadas son alcanzadas por la incorporación de correas gemelas de acero, las cuales son reforzadas por dos capas de poliamida.

All-Season vs. All-Weather Tires: What’s the Best Touring Tire for Premium CUVs? – 2024 Test 2 – With Winter Update(22:11)
We’ve tested Touring All-Season tires before, but never like this! Eight Touring tires, the best of the best, both 3PMSF branded [all-weather] and traditional all-season options, take to the street and the track to see how they stack up. Using our new Alfa Romeo Stelvio to represent the popular CUV segment, TJ and Brent put these eight contenders through the paces on the road, on the track, and in the winter elements to get a read on what to consider when comparing all-weather vs. all-season tires.
Customer ratings showcase the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 as a standout in its Max Performance Summer category, with exceptional dry traction (frequent 9-10 scores) and strong wet grip (mostly 8-10), aligning perfectly with its intended use. Drivers highlight precise steering and confident cornering, emphasizing its sporty handling. Comfort receives consistent praise for a smooth, quiet ride despite its performance focus. Treadwear ratings are generally positive (many 8-10 scores), though a few note reduced longevity under aggressive driving. While a small number report lower durability in high-stress scenarios, most users express high satisfaction, particularly praising its balanced blend of summer-focused performance and daily-driver refinement.

...It rains a lot where I live and wet traction is better than I thought...
These are a pretty decent set of tires. It rains a lot where I live and wet traction is better than I thought. Since our winters are mild, I run these year round. During the colder months these tires are hard as a brick until fully warmed up and create a bit of NVH. The grip and confidence I have in these tires offset any NVH in my option. I would definitely purchase these tires again.

...They have very solid wet performance with nearly no slippage.
OEM on my '18 Ford Focus ST; These tires take a bit of warming up before grip is available, but when warm, the grip is great. They're a tad noisy but are a comfortable ride for the type of car. They have very solid wet performance with nearly no slippage.

...Finally got some rain recently in SoCal. The wet traction on these tires puts the Michelins to shame... there is just no other way to put it...
Well, this might be the my new favorite tire for ISF. I choose 245/35/19 front and 275/30/19 rear set. Besides the outstanding price point, I must say I am very delighted with these tires.
1) Outstanding grip, it is much harder to let the car slide sideways than before. Noticeably less wheel spin on hard launches. It is almost weird to me.
2) No change in the steering feel vs. Michelins PSS. Great comfort level on these right from the start, it took me little while to get comfortable with the new set on PSSs before. Both tires great comfort wise.
3) Finally got some rain recently in SoCal. The wet traction on these tires puts the Michelins to shame...... there is just no other way to put it. (Not the big one for me, because it rains here 8x a year, but somewhere else this might be important.)
4) These tires are noticeably wider then the PSSs, the curb-rash protector on these tires is second to none. Anyone who has his girlfriend or wife driving their ISF will really appreciate this!!
By the way, these tires run noticeably wider than other tires in the same size!!

...The handling in both dry and wet weather is outstanding. The BMWer steers and brakes better with the F1 set...
I upgraded my old 1998 BMW 328 to larger 225 45 17 tires & wheels. I have now driven the Goodyear Eagle F1s about 1300 miles. Very glad that I selected these tires. The handling in both dry and wet weather is outstanding. The BMWer steers and brakes better with the F1 set. They are also quiet. Given the 300 tread wear rating I do not expect super long tire life. I mostly drive this car on weekends so the performance vs. long life trade-off is acceptable. Highly recommended. Note: Goodyear states that the F1 is only for summer/warm weather use. I have snow tires on another set of wheels for Maryland winters. Marc

...Every time I drive the G meter shows at least 1.2 g's with max of 1.31. The traction is excellent front and back to 5000 miles, then tire performance drops of dramatically...
I am on third set. Each lasts approximately 9000 miles, very aggressive open road driving in the extremely balanced and well behaved Cayman GTS. Every time I drive the G meter shows at least 1.2 g's with max of 1.31. The roads I drive very from smooth to rough, all very remote with corners from tight to medium mostly. The traction is excellent front and back to 5000 miles, then tire performance drops of dramatically. The tires are predictable however even once the performance drops off. Tire pressures make a huge difference and would keep as low as possible will still maintaining top speed rating. I would say the tires sweet spot is 60 to 85 degrees in the sun. Very balanced at all speeds, never a tracking problem. Probably my last set due to the Performance degration at only 5k. Most of the Performance is due to the car as it is a complete no brainer to drive especially compared to a 930 turbo. Sand, different pavement due to a bridge, or shaded wet areas, typically the car slides very balanced and neutral on all four corners of the car, and the cars electronics instantly readjust, so hard to say how much is car and how much is tire.

...They are very comfortable riding, even on fairly bad city streets...We have a ton of those...
When I bought the car this spring, I was disappointed that it did not come with Michelin 4S. Many of these do. From reviews, I think that's the tire to have for a car like this.
However, these aren't nearly the disappointment I'd anticipated. They are very comfortable riding, even on fairly bad city streets...We have a ton of those. They corner well although they don't have the same directness I've felt with Michelins on my old Cayman S.
Caymans are generally pretty easy on tires. Tires are big for a 3000 lb car and the weight is really perfectly balanced across the fronts and rears.
I had my first track weekend a few weeks ago and wanted to do a review while things were fresh in my head.
With no mods and using these stock N0 tires at a track that is notorious for eating them up (Putnam Park, IN), I got VERY good tire wear. Not only that, but the car was keeping a very good pace. I was dicing with A and Instructor cars from Windy City BMW club. Virtually the whole field was on R tires. The first few laps, I would lose everyone...until their R tires started getting up to temp and mine started also getting hot. By lap 3, the best of them were getting pointed by. By the end of the sessions, almost all of them passed me.
I expected the tires to be shreaded to a point where I'd be limping home. Nope. I'm driving on the same tires on weekends and doing errands. They look fine, don't have bad tread noise or anything.
I will say...1. These tires really howl when I get my cornering right. They make that "just before the accident" sort of sound. It's useful to determine under/oversteer. 2. Putnam was resurfaced this year. The smoother track may have helped longevity. 3. I already had 6K miles on the tires before they saw any track time. I think this also helps longevity...lower tread depth and molecular chains are longer..like having your R tires heat-cycled?
Anyway, good, comfy summer tires for street use!
