I chose to just take the tires and wheels to the shop so I could reinstall =
with torque wrench set on 60 pounds for styled steel wheels on 1973 MGB. Im=
pact wrenches could damage our stud holes if put on too tightly.

Numerous other changes such as poly bushings, new steering rack (230K on or=
iginal), solid alloy 3/4 sway bar mounting brackets from Moss. All in all, =
corners very flat. Tires seem just fine with the new changes, though only a=
bout 600 miles on them since June but no complaints up to this point.

Previous tires were Sumitomo HTR 200 from 2009 (about 2/32's left on tread =
and 12 years old) and before that Yokohama A008's (many sets) which were my=
 favorite but neither of these are available. The Falken's were rated and r=
eviewed better for wet and dry weather handling.

Our sizes are getting harder and harder to find and seem to made with mini =
van's in mind.

I replaced my old 1990-something tires with a set of Michelin Defender 180/=
70R14 about a month ago. They seem OK - I haven't put too many miles on the=
m yet, but they fit the car (Rostyle wheels) and they were on sale. The cos=
t was just under $400 including mounting and balancing.

Exactly the same size I'm using. Circumference matches OEM just fine.
