Vredestein offers a promissing option with the Classic range. Will the 185 R05 fit under the arches of my BN4, or shall I buy 165s?

They are also are very good tyres Its a question of what you want the car to look like. 165s are original and suit cars with 48 spoke wheels and original width rims.

The 185x70/15 are not so good - too fat/lower profile. Best rim for 185x15 is 5 inch. Have all on my BJ8. Robert N.

I have the 185/70 x 15's and love the look. I also like that the Vredestein Sprint Classic tread design has an period look. The 185/70's do a mar; /html/healeys/2011-02/msg00212.html (8,521 bytes)

If we could crank in more castor on a Healey, maybe they would be better. I would call them a nervous tire. Perhaps they will get better w; /html/healeys/2011-02/msg00217.html (8,159 bytes)
