Pirelli price difference left to right

Needed to replace front Corsa's 265x30x19 and checked out tire rack and since they are side specific I didn't notice until and I questioned the order taker what the difference in the two tires since they were both 93y.

Price on the left $539, price on the right $599! And there are no rights available.
Anyone have a thought why the difference in price?

Humm...
That's the side that hits all the potholes on the shoulders of the road..?
Or everyone is NASCAR style racing, turning left and burning off the right fronts..?

Left is old stock and old pricing; right is the new pricing for the new stock which isn't available yet? That would be my guess.

Mine were like that too...its AMAZING how expensive the tires are for that car...I dont even think my R8 tires are as expensive...and my slicks for the cup are down right cheap in comparison...

Looks like tires are not part of the CPI as inflation (pun) index has hit the tires.
The new Trofeo isn't quite the right size as it's too tall.
