    Pirelli Centauro

    This is a spare tire that came with my 66 911. Still has the tire whiskers & paint. Probably never used as a spare either. Good for show etc.( Tire only.) 100.00 plus shipping. I’ll take care of PayPal, due to misspelling Cinturato.....cliff

    Not original to the '66. The third picture shows the date code to be the 20th week of a year that ends in 9. So 1969, '79 or '89, take your pick. Judging from other marks on the sidewall (the 86 S that follows the size in the third picture) I'm guessing either '79 or '89.

    Bought the car in 95’. It’s not a reproduction. I’m just using it as a roller on skates. Thanks for the info.
    I own a metallic silver 72 T 1345, keep up the good work. I need to get going on mine, for sure.

    I can make this a five tire deal for 400.00. The tires would have to be dismounted from a set of 4.5 alloys ( 4 ) @ buyers expense. Don’t think it would be a lot of $ to have this done. Can also include the alloys for 8,600.00 U S D with 5 tyres. Does not include the steel 4.5 pictured. + PayPal on the alloy ( 8,600 ) package. Shipping to be determined, UPS/ FEDX to your doorstep.

    New incentive : A 4.5 Alloy package option...............I can make this a five tire deal for 400.00. The tires would have to be dismounted from a set of 4.5 alloys ( 4 ) & the steel wheel dismount @ buyers expense. Don’t think it would be a lot of $ to have this done. Can also include the alloys for 8,600.00 U S D with 5 tyres. Does not include the steel 4.5 pictured. + PayPal on the alloy ( 8,600 ) package. Shipping to be determined, UPS/ FEDX to your doorstep

    Won't be 69 as no week/year dating back then don't think there was in 79 either but in any event the tyres are way out of date no matter which year you use.

    The week/year dating was active in '79. I sold tires for a living then, and in those days the dealer was supposed to register the tires for the buyers. I had to copy the full code including the date part off every tire we sold. But you are correct, that whole DOT code thing started in the '70s. Wasn't thinking when I threw out '69 as an option.
