The Original Dunlops on my '14 SQ5 are almost gone at 19k miles!

I know there have been a few threads talking about tire possibilities...but there seem to be limited options. I live in southern California, so summer tires are fine for me, but the Dunlops were so soft and wore out so fast and they're really expensive! Any new recommendations? Thanks!

Another SQ5 owner on a different forum purchased some Atturo 265/40R21 105Y, for $613, shipped. Yes, that is for FOUR tires.

Trying a new tire...

Suck it up and buy the Pirelli's.

We drove the Macan quite a few times and the SQ5. The Macan had the all season Michelins and the SQ5 had the same tire you have.

The Macan was much better than the SQ5 with the Dunlops.

Our car came with the Pirelli's and it handles better at the limit than the Macan. They probably will only last 10k the way I drive them but the P-Zero's do amazing things for the car.

I've pushed it really hard with the ESP off and still can't get it to understeer.

I got them a few weeks ago, much smoother ride and have no complaints so far.

Let's see how long they last.

(not planning to do any track with them).

I was going to buy Pirelli Scorpion but now you guys got me thinking. I need 235/55R19 size and Arturo are much cheaper. Wow. I thought I was set on which tire I will buy and now I have to start thinking again about this

BTW: Can I go with 245/55R19? This one would be a little bit wider, right? I have 10mm spacers front and rear.

The Atturos are sooooo much cheaper that it's a bit concerning...but also tempting. Does anyone know anything about the brand?

These are Macan summer tires and I think they're new-ish.

If you bump up to wider wheels, there are now 21" PSS for the new X5M that are same diameter as Q5 at 285/35/21.

What about the new Pirelli Scorpion Verde for daily driving? Anything wrong with these for getting to and from work? Will they fit our 21" wheels?

"The Atturos are sooooo much cheaper that it's a bit concerning...but also tempting. Does anyone know anything about the brand?"

Yes I can offer an opinion on these tires.Former garage/tire shop owner.These tires are made in China and marketed under the "Sailun" name - at least here in Canada.They are the only brand of Chinese tire I felt comfortable selling to my customers.They're a good/safe tire allround but as with most things you get what you pay for.They will wear faster than major brands but once you get into 19"> the differences are less important and the lower price easily compensates.
