Hello all,
I'm new to this list, but not to Triumphs, so greetings.
Another questions re TR6 tires: for a daily driver (ie non-racing), how much
difference to handling will good tires make, considering that the original
tires (the tall, hard, skinny Michelins) had virtually no sticking abilities
whatsoever? Wouldn't even a set of cheapo Generals, Kumhos or whatever in
the 70 series be likely to produce handling at least as good as the
80-series originals?
I don't drive my TR6 hard, at least until I find a roll bar, so I'm
wondering if a set of cheapo tires that let me go slip-slidin' around would
be OK. This would be on stock wheels. I have another car for true sports car
driving, so I'm not interested in ultimate performance.
