Can these tires be used during the winter? I have the 19 inch wheels running 275/45.

Do 19 inch snow tires even exist for the cayenne?

 

My TT came with the 19" wheels and these tires. The tread looked as if it was "all season." I called Pirelli and no one could give me a straight answer about these tires. I think Pirelli makes this a 19" Scorpion series tire that may fit these wheels. I believe it is standard on the Range Rover.

If you're going to upgrade your wheels to a 20" +, I would suggest trading these wheels for a set of 18" with the all season tires.

 

I had limited experience last spring with driving my S in the snow here in Alaska and the stock tires (18") were horrible. My guess is the 19s and 20s will be even worse. I am putting dedicated snows on my 18s for the winter and upgrading to different summer wheels and tires in the spring.

I have a set of 18" Turbo wheels with Pirelli Scorpion A/T tires for winter and offroad use. Will be putting them on in a month or two!

 

You will wind up in a smashing into a tree with those tires in the winter....God forbid

 

I made it through last winter (God help me) in my BMW 4.6 with the 20" Michelin Diamaris left on. I figure these 19s can only be an improvement!

 

MY 4.6is is horrible in the snow.. I had to buy 18's with snow tires... What color did you have...and where in NH do you live???

I live near Portsmouth. It was Black Saphire Metallic. It was the first 4.6 the dealer got in December '01. I sold it last April when I bought the Cayenne. With all the snow we had, I never really had a problem. I never venture out during blizzards and the roads are usually clear the next day.

 

My family has a home at Seabrook Beach, I go to portsmouth alot. Especially the beautiful gardens...that they have... I love driving up route 1A on the SEacoast, as long as there is no TRAFFIC!! Good luck with the new Turbo Cab...its an amazing car..
