[Healeys] BN1/2 Scuttle Shake-XAS

[Ron Davies]

Michael:

I just got my 180HR XAS back from Allen last week.

They replaced 12 year old Michelins that Allen had tuned, trued and balanced to take out the scuttle shake the car had.

I have a carb problem or bad fuel and can’t get the BJ8 up to 65 but the difference around town especially over cobblestone is amazing.

It’s like I have new shocks and power steering all of a sudden.

Hope to get a new fuel filter on today and get it up to speed.

Very happy so far with the tires.  Problem with living in CA is that it cost me around $600 just sending the wheels/tires East and back.

We don’t have rain in Southern California so I don’t know how they will be wet.

I know they are expensive but give consideration to the Michelin 180HR15 XAS's that I put on my 100 are really great and they are appropriately sized, filling the wheel wells nicely.  I had mine drop-shipped by Coker to Allen's shop and he fit them to my wheels which I sent separately.

At the  moment, Kumho 165/80R15 and I really like them.  But they have seven years and 31,000 miles on them now and I need to be looking for a new set in the next year or two.  I have all of my tire and wheel work done by Hendrix, and he tells me that Kumhos in that size are no longer available.  It’s getting to be a problem to find any tires in that size, apparently.  For a while, Vredesteins were available, then Nexens.  Now, I don’t know.

Hi Steve,

 

Thanks.  Which tires are you running?
