185R16 Avon Turbosteel
When the 185R16 Avon Turbosteel came out in the 1980's as a modern tyre in the size 185VR16, It was dramatically cheaper than the genuine period 185VR16 PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ CA67 which at the time was the only V speed rated radial tyre in this size.
185R16 Tyres
Currently if you want a budget track day tyre in the size 185R16 then the Avon Turbosteel offers excellent value for money. It is a little lower in diameter and fatter in foot print than a period tyre of this should be, which is part of what makes it such a good track day option.
Other options of tyres in this size would be 185SR16 Michelin X which offers exceptional value. 600WR16 Michelin Pilote X which would be the highest specified tyre in this size and a great track and high speed usage tyre. Then probably the 185VR16 PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ as the only V rated genuine period tyre and of course the CINTURATO ™ is the radial tyre that was used by most of the top performance car manufacturers of the 50s and 60s.
The Overall Diameter of the 185VR16 Avon Turbosteel is 690 mm and the width is 185 mm. For more information on the 185VR16 Avon Turbosteel please see below or call +44 (0) 1302 711 123.
