Bloody hell they must be expensive, the only tyres I have seen on display anywhere, that look like they are physically locked on display............must be gold dust. Must be a lot of shop lifters after tyres around now?? :lol: :lol:

well that actual tyre there has cost thousands and thousands. at present that will possibly be one of the most expensive tyres you have ever seen. however that cost hopefully will be spread out among the actual production when it comes out so they shouls be more sensible, along with the rest of the Stella Bianca range.

Hi

This is the 165R15 tyre that Porsche fitted before the CN36 was invented in 1968

It was called Cintura some times or Veith Pirelli but this is the tread pattern and it has a carcass very suited to your cars.
