The Dunlop Denloc tires were replaced by Bridgestone RE71 tires on the road version of the Porsche 959. The RE71 tires were one of the world’s first self-supporting run-flat tires. They featured the Denloc bead profile, reinforced sidewalls and were capable of meeting the road-going Porsche 959’s top speed of 202 mph.
Bridgestone has built new RE71 N0 tires featuring the Denloc bead profile in the Porsche 959 sizes. These are the only tires available for real Porsche 959 vehicles and also fit RUF (a Porsche tuner) wheels produced in the 1980s that feature the Denloc bead profile.
These tires cannot be installed on standard 17-inch diameter wheels and tires with standard 17-inch bead profiles cannot be installed on Denloc wheels.
Only a few of these tires are manufactured in Japan each year. The tires we have received are intended solely to support customers in North America. They cannot be exported!
