Goodyear or Pirelli tyres

Just noticed that the standard 19" tyres on Disco 4 now appear to be Goodyear rather than Pirelli which appear to have been standard fit for several years!
Anyone experience & feedback on how the 2 tyre types compare?

No experience of the Goodyear tyres but the Pirelli's are still listed as a no cost option. Cheers Ian

The Goodyear Wrangler HP A/W are rubbish

My D3 came with them and my D4 currently has them as well. The tread blocks cup and it makes the tires extremely noisy. They last reasonably well (50% after 27000Km on the D4). I had to change them at 35000km on the D3 as the ride suffered and the noise was unbearable.
