What the Pirelli Scorpion is built for

Tread life and grip ratings
This tire carries a UTQG rating of 400 AA A. The treadwear grade of 400 is a relative durability score — a grade of 200 is expected to last roughly twice as long as a grade of 100 under the same controlled test. Traction grade AA measures straight-line wet stopping grip (AA is highest, then A, B and C). Temperature grade A reflects heat resistance at sustained speed (A is highest).
Price and value
At $203.08 per tire, a full set of four costs $812.32. That is about 9% above the average of the 173 tires we stock in this size, reflecting its position in the range.
