Quite reasonably priced from Taleb Tyres as well.Benny. Edited 30/01/13 07:51 AM by Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard some shocking reports about ATR sports in the wet though.. A mate of mine turned his into burnout tyres as he didn't feel safe with them when it rained.

BOSSGTE Member 56 Member For: 12y 2m 7d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 31/01/13 11:05 AM Share Posted 31/01/13 11:05 AM I had Altenzos on my N/A G6E. I got 50,000kms out of them, but they were an absolute liability in the wet. N/A's shouldnt break traction at 80km/h! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot of factors will effect tyre life. Treadwear is rated at 260 for these tyres (W rated) so I'd guesstimate about 15-20,000 kms if you look after them, obviously alot less is you engage in regular 'spirited' driving.I've only done about 3,000 kms on my INVO's so haven't been through a set yet. If I get 15,000 out of them I'd be happy, given the level of grip they offer you have to expect higher wear rates. As an example, prior to fitting the INVO's I would get wheel spin from an 80km/h roll-on (Dunlops & Kuhmos 275/30/20 rears), with these just a slight chirp and they hook up. These would also have to be the quietest 20" tyre I have ever fitted, I'm a fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
