Subject: [Healeys] 100 original tires

 I have a Dunlop Road speed RS4 (for display purposes only) hanging in my g=
arage. I was curious what originally came on the 100? Some sources state Du=
nlop road speed. From some light digging I did online it seems a RS2 or RS3=
 were never made available. Also found that the RS4 could have been used as=
 early as 56' and the RS5 around 59'. The period ads list the RS4 for the 3=
000 and a few other cars.=C2=A0
So my question is, was there a RS1? Or even just a Road Speed without any f=
urther letter/number identification? I almost feel comfortable pointing at =
the tire and saying "that is the original tire that would have come on my 5=
7' 100-6", but what about the 100. Hmmmmm.=C2=A0 Could be wrong though.
Thanks=C2=A0 all, Shawn
