    Source for Pirelli CN36 tires?

    I'm wondering if anyone has a reliable source for Pirelli CN36 tires in North America? A friend of mine needs a new set for his recently purchased '69 911E.
    Thanks from Canada.
    Cheers,

    Jones...

    Don't be afraid to order from Longstone in the UK they provide excellent shipping service.

    Ahhhh the sixties... I envision myself one early Saturday morning wearing plaid shorts, black shoes with white socks smoking a cigarette heading to the hardware store to buy a bag of nails.
    SWB cars are an acquired taste however once acquired theirs no turning back.

    Longstone is a great option - they speak sports car tires. Other possibilities include:

    I went to a Porsche Club UK event run by Pirelli discussing approved tyres for Porsche. It covered tyres for more modern Porsche’s in some detail. When I pressed the Pirelli presenter on more details about their branded tyres for classic cars he said … just deal with Dougal at Longstone Tyres … ‘nuff said

    I ordered 4 CN36 tires from Longstone Tyres 4 years ago. Great service and very reasonable shipping costs ($87.00).
