How many miles and years have you been able to get out of your Pirelli Scorpion ATR tires?

29873 and they were at minimum tread at that time. The Michelin LTX AT2 that I put on in their place have taken me to 70,000 and are still showing plenty of tread remaining. I always rotate with each oil change every 5000 miles.

Defenders are good tires. Most people in the truck/suv world seem to pick tires for looks not their intended purpose. In a large section of the USA a Defender would be the best choice for how most American's drive.
I quite liked them initially as a replacement for the Pirelli's but was glad to be rid of them when I handed my 2021 lease back...

Didn't like them at all at 'tollway' speeds... sweeping bends on a tollway were 'on edge' with the sidewall squirm...

Can't complain about my Hankooks... had a wheel alignment done straight away to remove the edge scrubbing and they are 20k miles in with no issues....
