Sorry for my English, I'm italian.
I'm a member of www.cougar.it and I'm looking for a new set of tyres ( 215/50 R16) for our italian Cougars. Here, in Itlay, these tyres are almost unknown, very rare.......and so...expensive.
Have you any link to online tyre German shop that ship to Italy ?
The ony one I've found is http://www.markenreifen.com/ .
Are there any others shop that sell our size of tyre ?

Thanks a lot for any support.
Ciao
Igor

Hi Igor,

Michelin does not produce this size anymore.
So i think this is the only tire left.

The size 205/55R16 fits also to the original rims.

Best regards,
Thomas

@Thomas
You don't need to use Michelin!
Other Companies also produce the original size of these Tires ( 215/50 R16 ).

@Igor
Sorry, I do not know any shops that ship to Italy.

Hi,

So are you sure that the 205/50/16 fits on a cougar with original rimes (jantes) ?
I have actually 215 tires but they are finished...
Thanks for the answer,
Bye Bye

Hi Joe,

welcome here at Euro-Neco!

Definitely yes. The tires in size 205/55R16 fits to the original rims.
I have a certificate of the German TÜV and they allow the use of the size 205/55R16.

Best regards,
Thomas
