Help on Tire selection

My 2021 Premium XR AWD needs tires at 78,000. I am running Pirelli Scorpion All Season Plus 3 235/55/R19's now. Original tires lasted 30,000.
I am 81 and not a racy driver. However, I live in the NC Foothills with a 15 mile trip to the interstate. These first 15 are up and down with sharp curves at 40-55mph.
Looking for a quiet comfortable ride and about 50,000 miles.
Suggestions will be appreciated,
Dick

The tires you are running now are one of the smoothest, quietest SUV touring tires in that size without going to an EV specific tire (Hankook's). Many here on the forum run these tires. You got just about 50K miles out of them. What is wrong with getting another set? The top tire for comfort would be the Hankook's but they are $50 more each tire. Either one would be my choice.

By the way, there are over 25 threads on this form for tire suggestions.....

I don't keep track of these type of specifications. I'm driving on the Bridgestone/Firestone Turanza. They are performing well. I don't notice much road noise. No squealing around turns and my wife hasn't griped about them.

I have the Pzero A/S Plus 3 Elect - an EV spec'd tire that is very similar to the Scorpion A/S Plus 3. They are extremely quiet (foam lined) and comfortable while still being engaging when pushed.

I had Scorpion A/S Plus 3s on a different vehicle and liked those too. Why are you not just getting another set?

Yup, if it aint broke don't fix it.

Thanks all!
I posted my request since a lot has happened in the tire industry for EV's during my 50,00 ride on the Scorpins. It appears my choice was good then and is also good now. Ordering Scorpions today.

I put on the goodyear electric drive 2 tires and have been very happy with them.
