Waz Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Hi Tony, Do you know if the tyres in the sizes 235/60-15 and 215/60-15 in V or W rated are available? Big bro is looking for them for his Dax Tojeiro based Cobra replica, which has Jag running gear, with the ford 7.5litre v8, and has been told by many suppliers that they are not available in the UK. Also, what kind of geo set-up should he be looking for? Thanks, Warren. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 I'm sure we can find some.... Have you contacted BB/wim centre? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waz Posted October 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 I'm sure we can find some.... Have you contacted BB/wim centre? Not yet, but he seemed so convinced by other outlets that he wouldn't get what he needs, that he was beginning to talk about changing wheel sizes to get to more common tyre sizes (17's with low profiles), he's already had an 'outing' in this car and had to rebuild alot of the drivetrain and was told the problem was mixed tyre types and wear levels (likely) which he only did due to poor choice of tyres on offer. I can only imagine that the 17's would make the car more nervous and a bigger handful than it is already? My first thought after the great stuff you did to my '5, was to recommend a geo while he's at it - who knows what the local 'specialist' has given him as a set-up? we did find the Pirelli PIR P600 98W on the 235 size on the BB online ordering page, but PIR P6000 94W on the 215. is that a totally different tyre? Thanks, Warren. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
