Nice quiet tire. The Michelin Agilis has better life, however, they are not available in 215/60/16 103/101T here in Australia and no doubt more money. I have also been informed that this Pirelli tire is no longer available either. It will be a challenge to replace these with something equivalent when the time comes.

Have not had the Pirelli tyres long enough for tread wear comparison, but the wet and dry performance of the tyres are excellent.

Why This Tyre?

What's the Pros And Cons?


Pirelli Carrier UTQG 240 A A

Compare and Rate Your Tyre on its Treadwear, Traction, and Temperature

tyre-size

240 A A

•  240 Treadwear:
This grade represents the tyre's expected life/duration, ranging between 100 to 1000. Usually, the higher the treadwear rating, the longer the tyre life.

•  A Traction:
This grade represents the tyre's capability to stop on wet asphalt and pavement. Ratings are expressed in letter form, with AA being the highest and C as the lowest.

•  A Temperature:
This grade represents the tyre's heat resistance ability, with A as the highest and C as the lowest. Heat build-up causes the rubber to break down faster, which can cause blowouts. The higher the temperature rating, the longer the tyre life and the higher the speed rating.

The Pirelli Carrier is an Asymmetrical Tyre


tyre-size

Asymmetrical tread patterns combine different tread types to deliver maximum wet and dry road grip via its inner and middle tread, while outside, larger and rigid tread blocks dominate the design to improve cornering.

To avoid fitting mistakes, asymmetrical tyres are labelled "outside" and "inside only" so you know if they will face your vehicle or out.

Pirelli OEM Tyres

Pirelli's Carrier is the Original Equipment tyres for a handful of commercial vehicle models from Mercedes Benz.
OEM or "original equipment manufacturer", means that the Pirelli worked with these companies to design a tyre model specifically for a brand new vehicle model.
Each OEM tyre is designed and repeatedly tested by car manufacturer engineers to ensure it meets the maximum performance, safety, and fuel efficiency parameters that will best benefit the vehicle.
