It was a quote, of course. And not only do Pirelli Carrier All Season have excellent wet grip they also have – and I quote. ‘PUNCTURE CONTROL SEAL INSIDE is a new tyre construction technology that allows you to continue driving without losing air pressure even after the tyre has been punctured by an external object. Covering almost 85% of the possible accidental causes of pressure loss.’ While I don’t blindly believe marketing hype, I do review tyre ratings and select tyres with the features I want. And for the bus that’s primarily wet grip followed by dry grip. Noise and life are far less important. Price is the last thing I look at. Pirelli Carrier All Season work for me but there are many other suitable tyres including those that are just black and round for those that think all tyres are the same.
I may have to move the bus a bit to check this aspect! Need some nice weather and time to pull engine and get her running again.
