What to look for in FPV F6 Series tyres

Sports cars are engineered around a specific tyre, and the factory fitment is usually an ultra-high-performance summer or all-season tyre with a particular construction and compound. Changing to a softer touring tyre in the same size will alter turn-in, steering feel and dry grip in ways that are immediately noticeable from the driver's seat.

Two practical points matter more here than on ordinary cars. First, staggered fitments — a wider rear than front — are common, and both sizes need checking before you buy. Second, high-performance tyres harden with age; a tyre with plenty of tread but a manufacture date several years old will not deliver the grip it did when new. Check the four-digit DOT date code, not just the tread depth.

FPV F6 Series tyre sizes and fitment

Tyre sizes for the F6 Series vary by model year, variant and wheel option, so the vehicle placard is the specification that matters. It sets out the size, the minimum load index and speed rating, and the correct pressures. You can fit a higher load index or speed rating than the placard calls for, but going below either changes the safety margin the vehicle was engineered with. Because the F6 Series is no longer sold new, availability in the original size is worth checking early — some older sizes are now made by fewer manufacturers, and the remaining stock can be several years old. Check the four-digit DOT date code on the sidewall so you know how long a tyre has been sitting before it goes on your car.
