Rear tyres are rare but they are still made.

I took a chance with a company I had never heard of and they were fine.

This was from 2018, I think they came all the way from Spain.

Items ordered:
Pirelli P600 235/60R15 98 W Quantity: 2 x 204,00 GBP

Order status: Parcel has been shipped

In urgent cases relating to the order, you can contact us by e-mail, responding to the automatically generated confirmation message.
E-mail: info@oponeo.co.uk

Yours sincerely, Team OPONEO.CO.UK.


Looks like they don't have the Pirelli's there now.

There is only one thing in life worse than not owning a DeLorean.
Owning one which is not running...

Thanks! I did not really want those R/T , M+S all weather tyres. They are terrible in wet. And not available for the front. Probably go with 225 60 15 like most of owners in Germany and get it homologated.
