Dougal, Although the P6's were factory fitted with Pirelli Cinturatos I don't think 165HR14 tyres would have been fitted to any P6's - HR spec tyres are for 125mph, which 4 cylinder P6's wouldn't do! The V8's did have HR tyres, but they were 185HR14's not 165's. Another interesting thing I discovere...

Thanks very much for the replies - I'm sorted now thanks - I asked around suppliers and Blockley Tyres have supplied me with 4 worn tyres which are ideal for my needs. Well worth looking at Blockley if you're looking for high quality period tyres - I'd never heard of them before.

Evening All!

I'm looking for some old tyres for my P2 - I just need some 5.50 or 5.25 x 18 tyres for my Rover 12 while it's in the workshop for restoration. Does anyone have any I could use please?

I fitted one today, but it turned out to have a nasty bulge when I inflated it!

Thanks,
Simon
