STELVIO CORSA

1951

At the beginning of the Fifties STELVIO was created, a tyre that combined all the innovations obtained from cutting-edge material research into materials while maintaining a tread pattern with similar alignment to the STELLA BIANCA. The collaboration with Ferrari for the development of this tyre was the first great example of a modern partnership between car manufacturer and tyre manufacturer, this concept of Original Equipment became synonymous with technological excellence. Stelvio saw the introduction of the innovative “nylon” version that opened the transition to the use of synthetic fibers. The early sixties saw also the development of “N + R”, a carcass composed of in nylon and rayon.
