205R15 Tyres
From about 1971 to 1973 many of the Rolls Royce Silver Shadow series 1 cars fitted this 205VR15 Avon Tyre as their radial option. 205VR15 tyres were also an option for the Aston Martin DBS. However at that point Aston Martin tended to use Pirelli Cinturato as their radial tyres.
It is also worth noting that a 205VR15 is the same as a 205/80VR15.
