I think the Scorpians are what they come with when new. I buy most of my tyres based on price so not really an expert.

If the Scorpians are the STR version of the tyre, some people report the vehicles tramlining in wheel ruts in the road. I haven't herd of any bad reports regarding the Uniroyals...

Someone should be along soon to add advise...

I had scorpions S/T's on my P38 for years , not a bad tyre. The STR's are crap though so stay well clear, really bad tramlining. I've switched to Toyo Open Country A/T's last time round and I'm really happy with them, think they are well ahead of the Pirelli's and cheaper too.
