Jim---Many of the TR6 owners now use a 205X70 size. It's comparable to
the original rolling radius of the 185X78 that came with these cars when
new. Pick any tread pattern on a major brand, that you like. I'd stay
with an H-rated tire, for it's heat resistance and grip, and good for130
mph. Yokohama, Pirelli, and BFGoodrich tires can be had for between
$75--$100 a corner.  The 205mm width will give a wider footprint than
your current 185's, by about 3/4".
