Hi All, I’ve just purchased a Series 3 E-Type and it has Pirelli P4000 ZR tyres on. These were last produced in 2011 so definitely need new tyres! What tyres can you recommend? I’m after a premium brand. Many thanks.

I use Pirelli Cinturatos on my series 2. Very pleased with them.

Speak to Dougal at Longstone Tyres - he recommends Pirelli Cinturato P5's for the S3: https://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/classi ... li-p5.html

I have Blockley radials on my S3 and I’m happy with them. Cost me around £800 ish for 4 a couple years ago.
