[Healeys] Goodyear Eagle GT

[Jonas Payne]

Bob,

You are of course correct.  I Had my + and b camber confused.  Aargh!

Regardless b the camber on our LBCbs is opposite what the modern tires are designed to deal with.  Look at nearly any directional type performance tire and youbll see different treadblocks between the inner and outer side of the tire.  This contributes significantly to wear and level of effort felt at the steering wheel.

David b I saw the Vriedstiens at two websites listed in both 185 and 195 series.  I am unaware of them being discontinued.  I sure hope not b Ibm going to need a set for my Healey in a few months.

I am lso was curious about some of the reproductions from Coker and Universal, which I have not tried.  The sporty Vintage Pirellibs are over $350, but some of the others look promising.  I just put a set of reproduction universals on my XK-150, but unfortunately, havenbt had enough wheel time to render  a decision.
