Pirelli Scorpion ATR’s 255/60/R18 No Longer Made
Sadly after 30k plus miles my Pirelli Scorpion ATR’s 255/60/R18 need replacing, They are unavailable from any of my local dealers and I looked on the Pirelli and they only show them in size 255/60/R19 now
I loved them as the were very punture resistant on the tracks I drive on great on motorways at high speed and long wearing.
What do I replace them with, my local tyre dealer suggested Kumho Road Venture APT KL51, what do you guys think?Club Narpy Torch

Luckily got 4 new 18" ATRs just put on the car plus have 4 x ~6mm in the garage. Should see out the life of the car, I don't do off-roading any more so risk of punctures should be about zero.

€155 delivery and ecotax incl.,
it´s clear that your local dealer prefers to sell Kumho, he has more profit margin lost in translation!

Thanks so much tyres ordered and are on their way! This forum has helped me so much over the years
Ruben: The Pirelli web site says they are no longer making ATR’s in R18 size only R19 so I guess these are old stock.Club Narpy Torch

When you have them in your hands tell us the DOT to know its date of manufacture lost in translation!
