Should I pull the trigger on 21" Atturo Tires?

21" Atturos
I have had them for about 20K - they've worn well on my SQ5, but have gotten a little more noisy as they wear down. I am not an aggressive driver but I will buy them again when it comes time to replace.

What size are those and how many miles do they have on them? If you do a You Tube search on Atturo AZ850 you will see a bunch of owners who are very happy, and you are the first one I've heard of that has had a problem. Of course that does not help you. After 34k miles mine are wearing very evenly, and as I said I expect to get another season out of them.
Just tossing this up as a heads up. Tires usually are pretty black and white, with owners never having issues or catching them all at once.

I guess this is early adaptor theory. Try them now while they are priced much cheaper than the competition, if you like them you're getting a great deal, if not you go back to the more costly competitors. If these tires take off and become popular i'm sure the same will happen down the road...higher QA standards, production costs and their price will increase to be competitive with others manufacturers. Let's face it, if these tires are good they aren't going to continue selling them so much cheaper than what's out there...their price will go up.

I've now had these on my car for 16k and I love them. No complaints! Seem to be wearing even better than the Dunlops. I will buy them again. I went with 265 40 21 with 10mm spacers.

just found this thread. thinking about trying these. I had 2 chargers and many of my friends had the atturos with zero issues and beat the hec out of them... mostly int he 275/45/20 size for the chargers.
I see one of you said you got 10mm spacers, is that necessary to avoid problems or rubbing? just curious why spacers if not needed.

I just installed them. Quiet at highway speeds. Wet handling seemed good. I went with spacers from Mops to make sure I had no clearance issues (and well why not since I saved so much $$). Will report back after driving them more.
