I have 185/70R13's on my 78. I have always liked Michelins but the only
ones in that size look too blocky for my taste. I Mail Ordered some
Continentals that look kind of Euro style and seem to be good for
handling. I haven't really pused them too hard except on the Skylin trip
but that was mostly weight for the camping gear and not "spirited"
driving.
