New tyres for the D4 - tyre life

Hi.

My original Scorpion Zeros' (255/50 R20 109Y's) have racked up 25k miles from new and now require replacing.

Don't do any off roading so considering whether to go for SZ's again or whether to try another manufacturer but being a tight git would like to feel that I can get at least the same mileage from the replacements.

Other than Grabbers which I had on my previous D4 (19") no complaints there, what other high mileage replacements can be recommended?

TIA.

+1 for GGAT3, I found the best price on line and went to my local place (Selecta) who match any quote.

Fitted for £130 each which I found very reasonable..

I don’t know if you can get them in your size but my 19” Pirelli Scorpion ATRs have about 40-50K KM on them and they aren’t even close to half way down yet. “Tough as old boots” is a common phrase for them.
