Quite reasonably priced from Taleb Tyres as well.Benny.

Heaps of grip, quiet and comfortable even in 20" sizes.

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.

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!

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 https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/83792-20-tyres-which-brand-is-good/#findComment-1357400 Share on other sites More sharing options...
