Ok y'all,
Tire choice is the question of the day... looking for "edjumacated opinions"
here... no talking completely out of your ass (partial ass talking may be
considered..).
The car? MKIII Sprite. 1275 with a decent Kent cam, header (hmmm... that's
something else I need to find), Weber. Front swar bar, lowered front & rear.
Street car... ya dig? Trying to make a fast comfortable street car. Gonna
run the 4 spoke American Racing wheels that I had on the dearly departed
RedRat. I think they're 5" width. Remember, this is a MKKII with 1/2
elliptic rear springs...
So, what are my 70 series radial tire choices, and in what size? Think
"spirited" street driving... (some may prefer to describe my driving
differently), and lots of interstate miles running up north of the Cheddar
Curtain to the summer place. Need to have good wet weather grip, and a
decent speed rating. I'm not real concerned about how long they last.
What say ye brethren?
Flounder
