Default 2 more N4 Pirelli tyre for Porsche 205/50YR15 P7 N4 & 225/50YR15 Cinturato P7 N4

Hi

STOP THE PRESS!!

it's all very exciting in the world of Classic Porsche tyres. Tomorrow i hope to be recieving my first small delivery of the new small range of P7 tyres. I wonder if anyone knows when these were last made, but here they are

http://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/page/205-50yr15-pirelli-cinturato-p7-n4.html
&
http://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/page/225-50yr15-pirelli-cinturato-p7-n4.html

that is excellent news and the prices are very good for such an exotic tyre

I should also be getting more of the 185/70WR15 CN36 N4 and the 215/60WR15 CN36 N4 as well.

You can get them all off this web page http://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/page/pirelli-cinturato

I will when they come in. But they will be brand spanking new. they have just made them, but i would suggest it will have taken a few weeks to do their quality checks

postage / freight to the States will be a buzz kill.

Thx - nice to know they are new.

Not sure why freight would be so high - many tires are shipped here.

I have a 1977 Targa with a square setup 15x6. Can I put 215/60 on Car? I currently have 205/60 on? Looks like Original Equipment was 185/70. Thanks in advance all...

oo, there's a good one for the pub quiz.

I think probably 1978. i am basing this on the fact that the Countach i think was the first prestigious car to fit them. and they fitted P7 to the LP400S which came out in 78. Prior to that the Countach had fitted Michelin XWX

there was however a special Countach was built for Walter Wolf in 1975 that fitted the P7. But i kind of think they weren't available for general consumption at that point because they weren't fitted as standard to the Countach till 78

I thought the P7's were available in 76. The 76 930's were available with an optional 50 series tire and I thought the tire was a P7.
