Jake,
When I got my wires wheels from British Wire Wheels in Santa Cruz, CA, they
commented about the enormous 195/70's the DPO put on the car. They have tires
to fit all LBCs from a few different manufacturers. And they're the only place
I know that can properly spin-balance a wire wheel. Sorry, that I don't have
their address or number handy. But I think they have a web page. It might be
worth checking out.

Mich MX4's can be had for about $65 a piece in 185 70 r14 size which is
about the same diameter as stock. No clearance problems. Costco sells the
Mich X-metric which is the wholesale club version of an MX4.

Hello there everyone
THis is my first message to the group. I am looking for info on tires for
a '75 MGB that my father and I am restoring so that I can drive it to
school next year! Currently, the rubber is Michelin MXM size 165/14. I
have been looking all over on the Net for that size and I cant seem to
find it. Woulde a different size fit like a 175/65/14? Money is an issue
here befcause the local MG garage said that they can get me 165/14's at
$80 apiece! I just thought that there may be a cheaper alternative?? Any
help would be appreciated. Thanks...
JAKE
