Pirelli ATR
I have a Disco3 which Has been running Pirelli Zeros since I go it 7 years ago, I’m happy about everything but the miles that I get out of a set 15k. They are mainly for road use.
Every time I need a set of tyres I look to see what else is available but worry whether Goodyear Efficientgrip etc have the required wall strength.
I always end up coming back to Zeros or trying to find some Pirelli ATRs. So here is the question, can you get ATR’s to fit 18” alloys, I currently run 255 60/R18 but can never find ATRs in this size?
The attraction of the ATRs is harder wearing, I’m guessing there is a slight compromise on road performance and mpg compared to zeros, but given the number of positive posts about ATRs I’m not concerned.

You can but finding them is the issue. One of the best tyres on the planet, IMHO anyway, shame Pirelli can't get its elbow out of its ar$e and make some!!

A few places do them, I got mine at kwik fit as 1 tyre was bad and was having a 4 wheel alignment there. You will need to call though and probably order as my local didn’t stock.

Fantastic tyre, had on my D3 and both D4s. Had no issue sourcing them a couple of months ago.

Mine had zeros originally then I fitted ATRs and have to say a vast improvement in noise and handling, they havent gone off yet which the Zeros did very quickly as well as wearing out to damned fast.

the truth is that they are very complicated to find P. ATR ....and more and more ... also when they are, in very limited and with an speed rate T. I was the one I wanted but I ended up installing the michelin latitude cross and the truth that I do not regret about it, I'm almost glad I did not find the pirelli!!
lost in translation!

I was trying to source some ATR 19s in December, spoke to Pirelli UK and they said there was LR stock in transit, available from 15th Jan so they should not be too difficult to get at the moment.
I also heard a rumour there was a replacement due at some point so not sure if ATR V2 is coming at some point.----------------------------------------

I bought a set of Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season 255/55 R19 111 H XL in about September from Openeo. The price jumps all over from when I bought them delivered at Euro 136 to as high as €215 a few weeks ago, but the price is dropping again now. I don’t think they have them in many sizes
