Avon to supply latest Caterham 7

ERJ staff report (DS)

Melksham, UK -- Avon Tyres is supplying 13 inch Avon CR500 tyres as OE for Caterham's Supersport car. The Supersport is the latest incarnation of Caterham's Seven sportscar.

Avon's CR500 was developed specifically for the demands placed on tyres by Caterham's lightweight, powerful sportscars. It was originally developed as a bespoke tyre for the original Superlight R500 but is now standard fitment across Caterham's entire Superlight range.

Julian Baldwin, managing director of Cooper Tire Europe, which manufactures the Avon brand, said, “Our relationship with Caterham Cars is a long and fruitful one. The Seven just keeps getting better and has now cemented itself as the ultimate driving experience for the road. We are proud that our tyres are the trusted choice for Caterham and its army of hardcore enthusiasts.
