To those of you following the Avon tire thread,
The latest issue (October 2014) of EVO (British Car Magazine) there is an
advertisement for Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires which reads in part:
"The Pilot Sport Cup 2 is available in a range of sizes from 21 inches all
the way down to 17-inch fitments. Following the tyre's launch, there will
be an increasing availability for smaller wheel sizes down to 15 inches,
enabling Michelin to cater for many popular trackday cars."
I don't know what the compound specifics/width's are with these tires but
as someone who has run Michelin Pilot Sports for many years, I can say that
Michelin builds a fantastic tire. It might be a good time to have a write
in campaign to lobby for Pantera tire sizes as Michelin begins to ramp up
production of the 15" tires.
So there may be more choices than just Avon soon.
