Michelin made a 145-13 radial for the Renault 5 (La Cinq/Le Car).  It was 
standard equipment.  While I haven't many in recent years here, I can't 
help but think they still exist in Europe. As for period, Michelin radials 
were available in the 1950s and would be considered "period".

Personally, I fitted a 70 series (New Zealand made) Dunlop on wire wheels, 
not concours, but looks right - only thing I miss is "bumpsteer".

Cheers,
Martyn
