Reply to "Pantera wide body tires"

Pirelli already makes them in their Prototype tire plant. But the plant that does such small runs is in Ismir, Turkey and also makes all the F-1 and F-2 tires. Guess which tires get precedence? Pantera dealers order 10 tires from Pirelli and receive 4 maybe 6 months later; sometimes, none, sometimes 2. If they reorder, they may or may not receive any. This has been going on for years. Pantera GT5, GT5-S and upgraded earlier cars plus racers use those sizes as well as the Countache and a few Ferraris. Shortly after '87, DeTomaso and the rest of the world switched to 17" and up wheels.
