18/60 - 15 (225/50 VR 15) Michelin TB5F+
18/60 - 15 Tarmac Rally Tyres
These 18/60 - 15 Michelin TB5F tyres are tarmac rally tyres. They are e-marked making them road legal for Europe and many other countries. Some countries rely on the American DOT system for road legality. These 18/60 - 15 TB5F tyres are not DOT marked, and we are not permitted to ship these tyres to countries where they are not road legal.
225/50 VR 15 Tyres
The standard road tyre description for the 18/60 - 15 TB5F is 225/50 VR 15. This size is suited to a 6.0” to 7.5” rim. If you are looking for a road tyre equivalent for countries that need DOT marked tyres. We would recommend either the 205/50 VR 15 PIRELLI CINTURATO P7 (5.5” – 7.5” rim) or the 225/50 VR 15 PIRELLI CINTURATO P7 (6.0” – 8.0” rim) as the best alternative tyres to the 225/50 VR 15 TB5F.
Often the range of Michelin TB5F tyres maintained a similar diameter, in a selection of different widths and were fitted with a variety of rim widths. Ideal for cars that have different size tyres front and rear. Below there is a Michelin TB Specifications Table demonstrating the dimensions of the whole of the Michelin TB range, including the TB5 F and TB5 R semi slick tarmac rally tyres. If again, you are looking for some different size front and rear road tyres then again the Pirelli Cinturato P7 offers a wide range of widths of road tyres as an alternative for countries that need the DOT mark. Again we have the PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ P7 Specification Table to help you find the correct road tyres to fit your needs.
Michelin TB5F Tyre Ageing
Tyre deterioration occurs over time, regardless of whether they are actively used or remain idle; this ageing process will eventually result in diminished traction.
Discontinue the use of tyres that show obvious indications of wear or ageing, such as visible cracks in the tread's rubber, deformations, or damage to the sidewall's lower zone. Consulting with a tyre expert is recommended should there be any uncertainty.
For optimal performance, it is suggested to use Michelin Competition tyres like this 18/60 - 15 (225/50 VR 15) tyre no more than two years from the purchase date (or four months if stored under intense tropical climate conditions) and within one year for tyres designed for wet conditions.
