OEM Spitfire tires

[<RGS03%ALBNYDH2.bitnet@UACSC2.ALBANY.EDU>]

About a week (or more) ago Mike Sharp asked about the original
tires supplied with 1977 Spitfires. It just so happens that we
have a 77 Spit that was purchased new. The original spare is
still in the boot. I finally went out to the garage and looked at
it. It was a Goodyear Custom G800 RIB 155SR13, and according to
Vicki, one of the worst tires she's ever owned.
Hope this helps.
