[Healeys] Tires

[Richard Collins]

I have 185x70 HR15 Vredenstein with tubes with 28 lb all around running evenly on my BN7.

I have been running tracks and instructing for a number of years with Porsches. Last year for the first time my front tires corded in the middle and not the edges. Falken RT 660 with a 200 wear rating. First time with that tire. That condition typically exists when tires overheat and expand getting rounder. Sometimes my tire pressure will increase 10-12 lbs. I check air A lot obviously for handling.
    So my question would be to Fred: are you driving somehow where tire heat is putting 6-8 lbs of extra pressure in your tires ?

Regards,
Richard C

Listers,

I am soon going to replace the tires on my 66 BJ8.

Currently, my tires (Pirelli P 6000) are showing wear in the middle of the tread and slight wear on the outside and inside edge of the tires.  I am running 30 lbs in the tires.

What pressure do most of you use?

Thanks,

Fred
