List has been a bit moribund lately so I thought maybe I'd try to start
some controversy.
I run Vredestein tires on both my Healeys; the BN2 from relatively
recently to having gone through several sets for my BJ8 over the
decades. I was somewhat surprised to see Vredestein mentioned favorably
with some of the 'biggees,' as I'd always thought of them as a 'niche'
supplier (but I had heard the GM for Vred in the US was a Healey fan and
one of their brochures featured a BJ8 on the cover). I've always been
happy with their performance and longevity, and they supplied tires in
some of the less common sizes (185/70R-15 for the BJ8; 165s for the BN2).
The CR article cited is behind a paywall:
/"The very top of the winter-snow table has Bridgestone, Michelin,
Nokian, and Vredestein as the most satisfying brands to own, and those
latter three brands dominate the summer tires category, too."/
