Pirelli P7 Tires

[werthie]

hi all . . . remember the old Pirelli P7's? well, Pirelli is making them again, along with the CN36's (which i just installed on my Bugeye Sprite).

i'm thinking of installing a set (205/50/15's in front, 225/50/15 in back) on my Caterham.

 

price aside, any thoughts? should i just stick with the Toyo's or the Yokohama's?

Not sure about the Caterham but I had to tweak the front wing stays of my Birkin to get 205's to fit without rubbing. But after all, I must say the handling with the wider front tires is rather worse than with the 195 I had before.
