Re: [Healeys] Tires Again

[Bob Spidell <bspidell@comcast.net>]

Thought I've give a little summary of the input I got on tires.

Avons and Dunlops are available, as are Michelin XAS, but I can't find a convenient source and they apparently are mucho 
expensive.  Realistically, Vredestein Sprint Classics--in either 185R or 185/70R are the only practical choice (unless 
you really want to spend big bucks for the others,  if you can find them).  Vreds are pretty good, I've run a couple 
sets with no problems.
Heaven help us if Vredestein ever goes out of business or decides not to support the classic car market (FWIW, their 
brochures have a red 3000 on the cover).
Anyone comes across a good new source for these sizes of tires please let us 
know.

Thanks for all the feedback.

Bob
