5.50-16 74V TL Pirelli Stella Bianca

These Pirelli 5.50-16 Stella Bianca are a genuine period tyre made by Pirelli from the 30’s through the 1940s and into the 1950s. The Stella Bianca 5.50-16 was used as a front tyre for the fabulous Maserati 250F which fitted either 6.00-16 Stella Bianca on the rear or sometimes depending on the race track 6.50-16 Stella Bianca on the rear. These 5.50-16 Pirelli Stella Bianca are also perfect tyres for pre war BMW, Frazer Nash BMW, BMW 501 and Post War Frazer Nash.

The situation we have with the expanding range of Pirelli Stella Bianca, specially with this 5.50-16 tyre offers an ideal set up for racing cars of the 1940s and 1950s that had different size front and rear tyres on 16” wheels. It is worth noting the incredibly high specification of the 5.50-16 Pirelli Stella Bianca with its V Speed rating of 150mph.
