Hi Listers, Well, I bought some Pirelli P4000 185/65R15 for the minilight replicas for my TR3. The handling is so much better it actually feels like an entirely new car. I'll start actually feeling O

Get a good front end alignment. Since the caster and camber are nominally not adjustable, have the shop measure and report them. Also double check for looseness in the trunnions, ball joints, etc. (

Anybody running 215/70-15s with Vic Brit factory competition springs? I've got some tired Red Lines that I'd like to replace, but my new Vic Brit springs dropped the ride height an inch over the spri

Hmm... Looking at some of the other articles, perhaps I'd be safer with the 205/70-15s. What are you folks running? I have the original steel wheels on a '76 TR6 with a slightly lower than stock ride

Bryce, I've running 215/65/15 with good results for about ten years now. That gives me 21mph/1000rpm, as compared to 20mph/1000rpm with the stock tires. Dan Masters Alcoa, Tennessee Triumph TR 250 -

this is a website i've bookmarked over the years that will allow you to compare various size tires against each other and the effect it will have on your speedo reading. http://www.powerdog.com/tire

I'm glad Bryce started this tire posting. I'm in search of new tires for my TR6 too. Couldn't decide on whether to go with the 205/70/15s that were on the car when I bought it last summer, or the 215
