Hi Tom,
        I was faced with the same problem on Casper (1957 TR3) 
although Dunlop SP20s are NLA, they do have the Dunlop SP Sport A2, I 
got a set of 185/65 15s, they are just slightly smaller in height 
(about  1/2 inch) but they look and work great, handle very well and 
I could not be happier.   Casper and I ran  the Triumphest Autocross 
in 29.4,  which was pretty  fast for a stock TR3...
