Struggling to find these in 265 75 16, would 275 70 16 be pushing my luck on a 110? (not lowered, ET0 Modulars).

my current tyre is 235/85/R16

can I safely change to a 265/75/R16 on a 110? as Pirelli dont seem to do the AT Plus in 235/85

not that I can find any at the moment Defender D250 HSE

Yes. You may lose a little bit of steering lock, depending on how the lock stops are already set, but otherwise you're good to go. Darren

Had a reply from Pirelli

Good Morning Andy,

Thank you for your email,

I have searched our system for both sizes and can confirm we only produce the Scorpian All Terrain Plus in the size 265/70R16 112T.

Unfortunately, these are currently out of stock at the moment, as we are waiting for further production dates. I would suggest placing a backorder of this product with your dealer who will be able to advise once they have become available. Unfortunately we do not monitor our dealers stock levels, it’s not something we have access too so I would be unable to locate these for you.

Kind Regards,
Hatty Andy

That'll learn ya for having 16" wheels, 18" tyres available all over the place. Get some 18" rims and you're sorted. Whistle Thumbs Up Monsieur Le Grenadier

A few months in, initial thoughts?
For those of you who plumped for the Pirellis, any initial thoughts. I know mileage might have been limited, but 4 months on from this OP, there’s been a good variety of weather to have trialled them in.

So any thoughts on:

Dry road - grip
Rain
Snow
Noise
Look

Any photos of them mounted?

I’m still torn between what tyre I’d like next. Thumbs Up Monsieur Le Grenadier

I've not been everywhere, but it's on my list.....
