- Have you checked the spare? I currently have XZXs on my '77. 175R14. Are those 70 series? But the spare is a 165R14. Not Michelin, I don't remember what it is. I think that's the original for the car

- Cool, I just looked at mine. The four XZXs are 205. So, either '85 or '95. Did they still make XZX tires in '95? I don't think so. And the Pirelli spare is 4666, so that sure sounds like original for
