Yes. Using the 265/40 -21s. Slight change in speedometer, but not a problem. And no other issues. Fitment is fine. And, mine is lowered 1.5".

Ha. I am in the exact same boat and researching right now.
So far I can only even find two worthwhile options. None in the stock 255/40R21 size. (The bane of the SQ5 21" setup...tire options.) Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season Plus - Size: 265/40R21 $218 (Unlimited Time / 50,000 Miles treadlife warranty) Continental CrossContact LX Sport - Size: 265/40R21 $320 (No treadlife warranty) (Technically a Touring tire) Almost makes the Pirelli a no-brainer if I didn't have such a bad taste in my mouth from previous Pirellis. I used to hate Pirellis, but I previously had a good experience with the Verde All Season+ so hoping these will hold up well. |

I just bought the Zero All Season Plus tires in 265/40R21 for my Q5...very close fit but no rubbing. Apparently these tires are a fairly new design from Pirelli, but have good initial ratings from TireRack. And only $220 to boot (compared to the more expensive Verdes in 255/40R21 OE size with no treadlife warranty and worse ratings).

Glad 265/40R21 fits without issues when I get the Pilot sport 4S

Not really a surprise, but another success with fitting the Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season Plus 265/40R21.
As gronk pointed out, not much more room for clearance, but no rubbing, And no way they would rub. Tire looks perfect on the rim IMHO. Bulge is not an issue, I actually prefer a little rim protection. Initial impression, smooth, quiet, comfortable. All good so far. https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...514dc3b1be.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...c4c5f46fe8.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...3153a12137.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...e3157c64ab.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...2ab5658f3f.jpg |
gk1 - Is it just me, or does it look like your suspension has a huge crack near your finger in the first picture??

You can see the split I'm talking about for the other control arm (far right) in the other pic below that one. |

Love the Atturos! Looks great with a 10mm spacer. They handle great! I've gone through two sets already about to go to my 3rd. I buy them online and have a local shop install. $630 installed
Still getting used to the handling, feedback seems a little vague so far... John |
