Hi,

I called a tyre shop to get a price on a Pirelli Scorpion ATR LT265/70R17 121S.

I was quoted $379 per tyre. Has anyone been able to get them much cheaper?

Thanks.

I was quoted (and boought) at a similar price.

Just love the tyres... as good as Cooper ATR off road and so much better on road.

With the Cooper ATR, everytime it rained on tarmac, the ABS used to sing its head off!

Thanks for the feedback.

My LC100 still has the original tyres so I am looking forward to an improvement.

Hi Mark
What type of mileage were you able to get out of a set of these tyres.

Cheers

Well.. I have only had them on for around 8K, but they are wearing much better than the Good Years I had before.. they only lasted 38K on my Disco 3

There is a large difference in the price between 15 and 17 in tyres mate.
265 x 70x 16 Pirelllis were $249 fitted at Bob Jane near me last year so 17's will be even more

Thanks for the ebay tip. These tyres come in two different load ratings and my LC100 needs the higher of the two. I have asked the seller about this.

Cheers.

The load rating for these tyres on ebay is 113. Unfortunately I need the Scorpions rated at 121.

Cheers.

Yeah I thought they might have been the P type rather than LT, but anyway it was a worth shot if it meant more money in your pocket.

Cheers
