Role of the part

The tyre provides the direct link between the vehicle and the road. It influences grip, traction, braking, cornering stability and driving feel. On a vintage or historic car, choosing a suitable tyre is essential to preserve chassis behaviour, ensure progressive handling and make proper use of the vehicle’s performance in historic rallying, VHRS, vintage racing or classic trackdays.

Symptoms or consequences of a worn, unsuitable or faulty tyre

• Loss of grip on dry or wet roads
• Longer braking distances
• Unpredictable handling when cornering or during load transfer
• Deterioration in steering feel
• Irregular wear that can impair vehicle stability
• Increased risk of losing control during sporty driving or on changing road surfaces

Benefits of replacement

Replacing it with a Nankang CVR-6 restores reliable grip, progressive handling and better vehicle control. Its competition rubber compound offers an excellent balance between performance, stability and predictability while meeting the specific needs of historic vehicles. It is particularly suitable for enthusiasts seeking a high-performance, road-approved tyre that remains true to the spirit of classic motorsport.
