I don't know if this is the best tyre for the TR3 but mine is
wearing a new set of Lemans 165 R 15 86T. The guy at the
tyre shop said they were the same size as used on VW bugs!
They seemed to be a little taller than the old Michellins
that were on the car. Of course those were over 30 years old
and could have shrunk? :-)
