Pirelli Cinturato vs Avon CR6ZZ - 185/70/15

[Dg567]

Is Pirelli still making P6000 N-spec in 185/70 or has it ceased production?

Seem to still be available.

Running the hardest compound Avons on my 73 914, and seriously wonder if I should have gone softer compound. I don't love them, with their stiff sidewalls and so-so grip before they're hot (on an old car, that means most of the time)....and bet I'll time them out before I wear them out. Would love to actually wear a set of tires out on my car....

.....wow, I find that really surprising!.....I've gone through 3 sets of CR6ZZ's (6's and 7R's - 185/70 and 215/60) and absolutely love them, when I've reached the tread bar I've used them on track until they've melted. Awesome tire imo....

...I switched from XWX's on my 2.4E with 6's and 185/70's all round to the new CN36 and it's also an incredible tire and blows the Michelin away.....more of a road tire as Hughe says with a softer side wall although I still think the Avons edge it for out and out performance.

Avons are a pretty incredible tire. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them
