I use TR6 wheels with Dunlop D60A2 185/65s on my 57 A. But then, I also have
a '69 B engine, '69 C carbs, a '72 rear axle and '74 B transmission in my A.
Makes it a lot more driveable on long trips. Most people think that the
wheels are from a Twincam or a Mark II Delux. They do handle well and are H
rated, although the tires are more than necessary. The car will only do about
118 given the current gearing.
