The Pirelli Scorpion Winter is a tire designed for use in winter and snow conditions. It is made for some luxury SUVs, crossovers, sedans and coupes. It has excellent traction capability for handling and hydroplane resistance. The Scorpion Winter is intended for use in winter weather environments including snow.
Carries the 3PMSF symbol — tested and rated for severe snow service. XL (Extra Load) — built to handle higher inflation pressures and heavier loads than a standard-load tire of the same size.
What these tire specs mean
Load index 108 means each tire can carry up to 1000 kg. Check your door jamb placard — the tire needs to meet or beat the load rating your manufacturer specifies.
Speed rating W is the maximum sustained speed this tire is designed to handle under proper conditions. That works out to 270 km/h under correct load and inflation — not a target, just the rated ceiling.
UTQG 420 AA A is a manufacturer-assigned grade for treadwear, traction, and temperature performance. Useful for comparing within the same brand — but it’s not a mileage guarantee, and ratings aren’t standardized across manufacturers.
Winter tires use a softer compound that stays pliable in cold temperatures, where all-season rubber starts to harden. They carry the 3PMS symbol and meet Quebec’s winter tire mandate.
XL means Extra Load. These tires run at higher inflation pressures and handle more weight than a standard-load tire of the same size. If your vehicle’s factory spec calls for XL, that’s what you need — swapping to standard load can affect ride, handling, and safety.
3PMS stands for Three Peak Mountain Snowflake — a symbol earned by meeting specific severe snow traction standards in testing. It is the mark Quebec requires for winter tire compliance.
Vehicle type indicates the service category this tire is built for — passenger car, light truck, commercial, or other. Matching the right category matters for load capacity, handling, and safety.
