"New" Pirelli DHA Slicks - 996cup rear application?
I was recently "gifted" a pair of new and unused 305 Pirelli DHA's from someone who has sold their car and left the sport. The durometer readings are good and they have been wrapped and kept out of sunlight in climate controlled storage. Anyone have experience with Pirelli DHA's? and a rear application for 996cup?
Have a great weekend!
Thanks in advance . . .

Think DHA is 2020.
I just ran a set of DHF (2022 version) on my 996 Cup in size: 265/645/18 - 305/680/18
Rears fit perfect with my set up, fronts were rubbing the inner fender liner off and damaged front left (outside) tire slightly.
Need to make more room there

Thanks guys. I had "heard" that DHA's were designed for the 458 Challange cars. I inquired because I've heard rumors of sidewall failures on the DHA and wondered if anyone could collaborate that. The durometer tests are all good as is the old fingernail push. I'm not competing, just doing recreational club days, not after a prize.
There is really no easy way to get date codes for Pirelli racing tires as they a re not DOT and stamped. If you are lucky enough to get someone at Pirelli to respond they ask you for the bar code number then disappear.
