Exclamation Please help me find this tire. Pirelli Scorpion Zero 275/60/16

Hey all I am literally going nuts trying to find a pair of replacement tires for my truck, Pirelli Scorpion Zero's 275/60/16. I have spent what seems like forever searching the internet and calling local tire dealers. Apparently this tire has been discontinued, in fact Pirelli seems to be the ONLY tire manufacturer that even makes this tire size.

If anyone knows of some secret online or retail place with this tire, and that will ship to Los Angeles, California then please let me know. Also it's important to note that many online retailers say they have this tire but actually do not.

I also was considering putting on a different pair of tires for my fronts, since the rears only need to be replaced. Still the only Pzero size I know most shops have are the 255/55/16's and I am worried how this would effect the trucks handling. How do you all think this size would work with 275/60/16's in the back?

Toyo also makes the Proxes s/t in a 275/60 16. I wasn't even aware that Pirelli made a tire in that size. If anybody would have it; I would think that Tire Rack would. Good luck finding it.

I wasn't sure if you had checked with them or not.

Yea well I just found 2 shops by my house (one a America's tire chain) that can get me the tires but in a 255/55/16, considering that these will be in the front and my 275/60/16's in the back, I think this should work out great
