Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season Tires
Thinking about putting Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season tires on my wife's Benz. Anyone else use them? Looking for something that is good in the snow. Thanks!

I had some on a ML320 some years ago. They were kind of noisy compared to the Contis they replaced.
That was probably not the current design, to be fair.

Had some a few years ago on an F150. Same comment, very noisy. In fact, every pair of Pirelli tires that I have owned have been noisy.
I'm personally a big Firestone/Bridgestone fan. Potenzas on my 911 and RX8, Firestone Destination AT on my wife's F150. The Destination AT are fantastic tires, but might be a bit aggressive for an ML. Take a look at the Tire Rack ratings to help with your tire shopping, they've never steered me astray.

I have Scorpions (don't know that they are tagged "Verde ") for the Cayenne (winter) --they're great, and run with much less noise than the summer tires.
