Specifically, the 345/35R15 Pirelli P Zero
Apparently it's a countach size?
Unfortunately it's not legal for OneLap (200TW+)... but it might be fun to bring to GRM $2k Challenge for 'most expensive set of free tires' (or am I missing some obscure Hoosier size?)
What would you do them?
oh that is painfully expensive. Ouch!
Was just discussing these tires the other day with a bro. Looking at tires for the Viper and wondering what other stupid expensive tires are available.
That being said these are still a bargain compared to 54" Super Swampers. 19.5/54-20LT. Now thats a big tire!

Someone needs to put those on a Miata
In reply to 93gsxturbo :
The idea of a 54" Super Swamper got my attention. One of my day dreams is to build a stupid-lifted truck again and if you're going to do stupid, go all the way. I found a vender that sells them for a smidgen less than the Pirelli. Still over $3800 for a set of 4 after $215 in sales tax and $50 shipping.
There is a 295 15 Hoosier a7 that is the right height for a miata and fits on a 12" wheel. Except for the coolness factor, it is probably a better choice.
At least you only need 2 of them on a Countach...
Pretty sure you can run those on a Pantera, too.
Wide-body Porsche 911?

It would be the other way around.

There's some pics of 'similar nominal dimension' yokohamas on 930's from back in the day
considering these beasts are 34#s a tire, even in 15" size.... yes, you'd be better off with Hoosiers.
But, that's never really stopped this variety of daydreaming on here, has it?

I already cry thinking about running some sizes of new A7s at the challenge. One year I purchased a potential challenge car that came with a set of 18x12 wheels the 345 A7s are almost $500 each.
Hillclimb rubber sizes get ridiculous with regards to cost.

Box flares or just let them hang out in the breeze?

$50 shipping sounds like a bargain for those. And I'm a big fan of "if you're going to do stupid, go all the way."
