Outstanding Customer Reviews Tyres
At Flying Spares, we offer an extensive collection of tyres including Rolls-Royce tyres such as Rolls Royce Silver Shadow tyres, as well as Bentley tyres such as Bentley Corniche tyres. Our selection includes both black wall tyres and white wall tyres in various sizes, meaning you can replace your worn tyres with new ones and maintain your classic car's style. We always recommend replacing old, worn out tyres with new ones of the correct size, as tyres over 10 years old do not have the same grip capability even if they have plenty of tread remaining.
SY models were fitted with a range of sizes listed below:
- Early Standard models (up to VIN 5579) and Coachbuilt models (up to VIN 6761) were fitted with a 6" wide wheel (UG12908) that was originally fitted with a 205 VR15 tyre.
- From VIN 5580-18268 (Standard) and VIN 6762-18562 (Coachbuilt) a 6.5" wheel (UG13160) was fitted that was originally fitted with a 205 VR15 tyre.
- From VIN 18269 (Standard) and 18563 (Coachbuilt) a 6.5" wheel (UG13160) was fitted that was originally fitted with a 235/70X15 tyre.
- We recommend inflating Shadow I & T1 tyres to 34psi and Shadow II & T2 tyres to 32psi.
Whilst it is possible to fit the later, larger tyre size to early cars with 6" road wheels, please note that they may catch the inner wheel arch when on full lock. That includes both black wall tyres and white wall tyres. Browse our full range of Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow and Bentley Wheels & Tyres for more options.
