Thanks for trying.
I found the same kind of link with a phone number in France, it does not work either and the postal address is not consistent, you're certainly right, it's not a good information.
Sorry

Dougal, I noticed that you posted again about the 79-84 cars that used these tires, however the production number is very misleading. As George, myself, and David tried to explain, there is a much greater number of cars that have or had the 15x10’s mounted.
The 15x10” wheels are currently being offered by Mrfiat.
The 285’s will fit on any narrow body Pantera using any rim that is between 15x8 to 15x10 as stated in Pirelli’s P7 tire brochure.
Hi
Yep i get it.
the 285/40R15 P7 is in the pipe line and will be happening reasonably soon as will the rear.
And as i understand there is what sounds like a good demand for a 285/50R15 as well i shall look into getting them made. It would help if they fitted another car as well. The 285/40R15 is also going to sell to Porsche guys as well which helps make it viable.
205/70R15 is 26.3 inches diameter.
215/65R15 is 26.0 inches diameter
235/60R15 is 26.1 inches diameter.
F60-15 is 26.1 inches diameter.
255/55R15 is 26.04 inches diameter.
285/50R15 is 26.2 inches diameter.
Size My Tires/Compatible Vehicles
According to the link above 235/60R15 size tires are OEM for Camaro/Firebird, DeLorean, Jaguar XJS, and Lotus Esprit. Plus the F60-15 size tire was a very common tire on 1969 and later American muscle cars, such as Mustang. Nothing comes-up for 285/50R15 however.

The Mickey Thompson 26-12-15, fits into that chart as a 305-48.8-15. I like that fit better.
They are an H which is good for 130mph.
Before V's were available we were running BFG's (S @ 112mph) on high speed track days. I NEVER saw one fail AND in the '70s, people were using them for race wets.
I've seen the Autobahn. If you guys can drive 200mph on that thing then you can do it on our bobsled runs here. Panteras get just a little unstable somewhere over 150-155. They only do 200 in video games.
That's all social status stuff. I don't play that game. Don't get your Gucci loafers scuffed. I wear beat up sneakers and torn jeans.

Here is a picture of a '74. I don't know who's car this is.
It has the 15x10" rear Campis and what looks like the 305-50-15 BFG Euro t/a's on it.
The Mickey Thompson's are the same size and will fit like this also. Just a different tire tread and an H-130mph speed rating.

Hi
Sorry to say I have just had news that the 345/35R15 P7 tyres will be another 2 weeks. Because of Brexit I would add an extra week just in case.
I believe there has been a logistical woopsey

Dougal,
The Reaper was asking about the 285/50-15 P7's not the 285/40-15.

Does anyone have more information about the possible future of 285/50R15 P7 ? Going to happen / not going to happen / keep on waiting ?
Hi
I'm sorry if I am spamming this comment a little but I would like to try to rally up as much support as possible so I don't want anyone that might be interested to miss it. I hope you'll agree it is for a good cause. I have the blessings of the forum administrator.
I have made a De Tomaso Pantera web page, here's a link:
Longstone Tyres - De Tomaso Pantera page
Please let me know if you see any mistakes. Any pictures you have that might make it better please send them over.
Importantly if you may be interested in a set of the 285/50R15 P7 tyres please drop me a note via the "contact us" link so we can keep your email on file and use that collection of email addresses to convince Pirelli to make these tyres.
