185/70VR 13 Pirelli CN36 tires

[TimMN]

Good VR rated 13" tires are available again!

They ship fast and the $135 price includes shipping to the US. Not cheap, but much better than vintage michelins.

DOT approved, Made in Turkey, 2016 date code.

I got a set last fall. Finally got some real miles on them running down to MidAmerica02 fest and back and they work and look great.

 

(Thanks Bo, Skip, Keith, and everyone else involved putting on MidAmerica -- it was fantastic as usual, even with the added moisture.)

Tim,

I parked beside you at MidAmerica '02 and hoped your car's CN36 tires mojo would rub off.  It did.  Ordered mine today.

How did I miss this post and this news, Tim?  That's great!  A 185/70 Cinturauto for $135 delivered! This is a no-brainer!

 

Regards,

 

Steve

They have been out for a while now.  Its great to see Pirelli doing this.  They do look so stinking good on the o2 (along with any other 13" tired car....)  Cudo's to Pirelli, they are also re-popping (and have been) Cinturato p7's 205/225-15 (the old school '70/80's cinturato p7).

Can anyone who has these tires post a picture of them on their car?  I'm thinking of buying a set.  Thanks,

John

These are 185/70 Kenda's not Pirelli's but  a full set cost only $184 shipped!:  http://www.ebay.com/itm/262324473474?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

 

I put these on just before '02 Fest and drove through torrential downpours in the mountains with these.  Pretty quiet and stuck like glue.

 

Here they are on the 1600 mounted on Riken 6x13's.
