Love my Avons but...

Any use?
PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ CN12 | Longstone Tyres

[xb-60]

Ever noticed that there are some very desirable cars (CSX continuation cars, Superformance GT40 replicas) that wear BF Goodrich tyres? I wondered why until the obvious became obvious.....they are trailer queens, and they don't want stone chips from sticky tyres.

Apologies to the trailer queen owners......naa just joking . These cars are for driving and enjoying....wear the stone chips with pride

Cheers,
Glen

Wow at 300 GBP each they make Avons look reasonable. They should wear a lot betterr though(and throw fewer rocks)

I think they were originally for Ferraris.
Anyway, best to give Dougal a call at Longstone tyres and see what he says, might well have a US outlet. You will find it hard to find anyone more obsessed or knowledgeable regarding tyres.

One other option is these cheapies which have just become available in the UK (we are gettng spolit for 15" choices now!).....dont know anyone thats tried them, but they are V-rated.

255/60R15 Galaxy R1 GT Rasied white letters

- assume these are available on the US. Noone I know of has tried them on a cobra yet.

Yes, they are.

Unfortunately, the sizes aren't big enough for the Cobras. They'll be too skinny.

The MT ET tire above looks very nice, modern, but they must handle like pig with that tread.
