I too have had good luck with the Sprint Clasdics, which grip decently, at least on dry roads. A more modern tread design would probably improve wet grip for those rarer occasions when we get caught in the rain. The key will be if they kept the vintage sidewall look that helps make the Sprints so appealing …<br><br><br><div class="yahoo-signature"><a style="font-size:12px" href="https://aolapp.onelink.me/eG2g?pid=NativePlacement&c=US_Acquisition_YMktg_320_EmailSignature_AttributionDL&af_sub1=Acquisition&af_sub2=US_YMktg&af_sub3=&af_sub4=100002473&af_sub5=SentFromNewAOLApp__Interstitial_&af_ios_store_cpp=ce85ce34-ad0f-4811-a92b-a172743b064e&af_android_url=https%3A%2F%2Fplay.google.com%2Fstore%2Fapps%2Fdetails%3Fid%3Dcom.aol.mobile.aolapp%26listing%3Demail_signature_attribution">Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS</a><br></div><br><p class="yahoo-quoted-begin" style="font-size: 15px; color: rgb(132, 115, 255); padding-top: 15px; margin-top: 0px;">On Wednesday, November 4, 2026, 12:46 PM, Bob Spidell via Healeys <healeys@autox.team.net> wrote:</p><blockquote class="iosymail"><div id="yiv6593401577"><div>
I have no experience with them, but I've had years with V. Sprint
Classics. I'd be interested in a comparison; offhand, the tread
looks more modern on the T-Tracs.<br clear="none">
