Bridgestone S007 tires

Looking at these for a 1984 911 standard 205/50 front 225/55 rear

Anyone run these or have suggestions summer tires that will age out before wearing out

I think you have your sidewall sizes backwards. Don't you want 205/55/16 and 225/50/16? If I believe the internet, my local Discount Tire has both in stock, Bridgestone S007 A.

How many miles do you drive a year? Any HPDE or autocross?

I had a set of earlier Bridgestones on the SAAB, they only lasted about 10,000 miles, but I drove it hard.

extreme contact sport is the tire for daily use IMO.

10,000 is way more than it will get before they start to get old and crappy. Spirited driving, no track time, summer only

Yeah, mixed up the 50 and 55, you know what I meant. There are a heck of a lot more choices for the 911 than the 914, I tell you what
