Default Winter tires for 2017 Q7 21"

New to this forum. Love it so far. Thanks for all the helpful info.
Looking at a new 2017 Q7 with 21" tires. Will need winter tires but unable to find the Scorpion Verde at 275-40/21. Are they available or are there others options to consider?
Thank you in advance.

I have a Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season tire in 275/40R21, but no winter tires at all in this size.

Default all season replacements

Is the 275/40/21 the preferred replacement size or should it be 275/45/21? Any hope for a Continental DWS coming out before next winter with a tire that will fit?

Nokian Hakkapeliitta Winter Tires
they are the BEST company for winter tires
before Nokia made cell phones(which MS bought out) they made tires

i have used their winter tires on 5 of my last 5 vehicles

get the plastic studs if allowed in your area/country
they are easy to install and remove and DO NOT damage the roads like the old steel/screw studs

Gary, any news on the 285/40r21 winter tire front ref. the 2017 Q7? Pirelli shows the scorpion winter on their us website, but I can't find any Pirelli dealers that can locate them

Thanks!

We will get the Pirelli Scorpion Winter in 285/40R21 and 275/40R21 in late August for reference. Snow tire production normally starts around this time of year, so we should have some reliable dates by the end of July

Picked up SQ7 today. LOVE it!

Rides on 285/40/21. But I have Hakka R3 snows in 275/45/21. Will they fit the SQ7 or do I need to buy new snows?
