The 600-16 PIRELLI STELLA BIANCA™ tire tread pattern was advanced for its era, and prominently featured trapezoidal blocks, which were intricately linked by robust “bridges.” These design elements were meticulously crafted to prevent tearing, even at elevated speeds. Remarkably, this innovative tread design maintained its originality and remained mostly consistent until the 1950s, serving as a testament to the tire’s superior performance and steadfast reliability.

In 1927, Pirelli debuted its first modern automobile tire, developed from the lessons learned in racing. Dubbed the STELLA BIANCA, or White Star, the distinctive tread pattern became Pirelli’s signature, and its bias ply design proved so advanced that the tire remained in production into the 1950s. Now, at the request of classic car owners, Pirelli has restarted STELLA BIANCA manufacturing, introducing its first new bias ply tire in more than 50 years.

Fits Jaguar XK120, XK140, XK150, Mark VII, Mark VIII, Aston Martin DB2, DB4, DB MKIII, Ferrrari 250 GT and Maserati 300S and A6 to name just a few.
