Need some rear tyres - where to people get them and how much do they normally cost? running on p zeros currently?

Indicators - what are the side repeaters off?

Thanks, Nic

Factory are recommending Michelins.

I tracked someone down at Pirelli who confirmed that they do not manufacture the tyres for the M400 spec any more.

Thanks for that. Why despair though Adrian?

I called Noble and PSSC's who now recommend I use Michelins on the M400 - instead of the Pirelli P-Zero Corsa’s...... I did contact Pirelli to ask advice and got the following response:

"They were original equipment on the Noble M400 and did offer tyres in 225/40/18 & 265/35/18 tyres but unfortunately we no longer produce the P Zero Corsa in these sizes.

In terms of an alternative tyre we would recommend that you contact the vehicle maufacturer again to suggest a suitable alternative. Unfortunately we are unable to suggest a replacement as we have not tried and tested any other tyre types on this vehicle"

So basically Pirelli, PSSC and Noble did not recommend a Pirelli tyre to use on an M400 anymore.

Because if you had contacted Silverline as suggested, they would have given you all of the information and a range of choices.

Im coming up for a new set of tyres as well - just out of interest has anyone looked at using the Yokohama Advan Neova AD08 ?

They look good to me for a road/track tyre.

My apologies to you Adrian.

I must be missing something.

All I was doing was pointing out that I had contacted the Noble factory for their guidance, Peter Smith's and Pirelli to confirm this, and was relaying that particular message to the guys that the Noble recommended tyres were no longer available. Not sure what this message has to do with contacting Silverline?

Again, my apologies for testing your patience leading to your despair.

Regards,

Jamie
