205/70 WR 15 PIRELLI P5
205/70WR15
The 205/70WR15 Pirelli P5 has such a high W speed rating, because the majority of sales of this tyre will made to the Jaguar luxury cars of the 1970s and 1980s. It is worth noting that amny of these cars did have the fabulous turbine like V12 engine in it that could propel the XJ12 or XJS-V12 to fantastic speeds in luxury and style.
205/70WR15 Jaguar Tyres
Remarkably the P5 was the first time a bespoke tyre was made for a manufacturer. Which was done at the end of the 1970s when Jaguar asked Pirelli to design a special tyre to fit to their luxury cars. Hence the Pirelli P5 205/70WR15 Jaguar tyres.
Worth noting that the range of Pirelli P5 goes further than the original 205/70WR15. Pirelli also make 215/70WR15 P5 for the XJ12 HE and the XJS V12 And they also make the 225/65R15 P5 for the later XJ40. This of course also applies to the Daimler cars of the day.
The series 3 Jaguar E-Type also fitted tyres of the size 205/70WR15. However the chassis of an XKE is more suited to the Pirelli 205/70WR15 Cinturato CN12
