Anyone familiar with Atturo tires?

Atturo Az800 - Compare Prices on Atturo Az800 in the Tires Category

Price is right and they're unidirectional.

There is a vendor here, Detail-King, who has advertised them; you might check with that site vendor.

I tend to agree with Sprocket: there are a dozen great brands out there in TireLand, and other than price, not sure we need another "brand".

Fwiw, Atturo is "located" in IL, but could find very little info about co on net. My guess is they are importing them from somewhere, maybe China or a 3rd world mfg'ing situ.

Made in Taiwan.

Introduced in 2010, one tire model up until now, more to follow apparently.

From their web site: "Designed to provide a value-priced performance tire...... developed to fill the niche in the market between the low end Chinese tires and mid-range brands from Korea and Japan."

I guess I didn't realize that there was a niche in between Chinese tires and Korean tires.

I have a coaster on my coffee table that says "Life is too short for cheap wine." They should make a tire version of that, for garages, IMO.

yes i fitted them recently to my X5 with 19 inch staggered rims

so far i,m very happy with them, they seem to handle very well wet or dry

ive done about 15,000 km on them and as yet no signs of any wear

if there is any negative, they are a little noisy, but only noticeable when the window is down, and especially on concrete roads

very impressed

atturo tyres

Hi

I've replaced my front bridgestone runflats with atturo (20" rims)
I'm impressed so far and as the rears need replacing soon i'll put them on the back aswell

I think they are less noisy also

regards

Trix5

so where do you believe your expensive tyres are made?? and when deciding quality, what country do you believe you will get a quality product from??.

didn't your country ship ALL its manufacturing OS isn't that why you are in the trouble you are

simply making snide comments about a product you have never tried demeans you, and renders your opinions invalid
