[TR] TR3 tires 6" rims

[KingsCreekTrees at aol.com]

No, I'm not racing anymore, Mike and certainly have never been/won't with  
this car. I have a '65 Volvo PV544 that I'm modifiying as a vintage race 
car,  mostly to preserve the TR3A.
 
A couple of years ago, I had an emergency incident (someone coming the  
other way pulled across the front of me while making a turn across traffic). I  
braked hard in the TR and found the brakes to be much better than the grip 
the  skinny tyres could offer. The tyres were in great shape, not old by any 
means  and a well-known brand. With the wider tyres, I can emergency brake 
and still  maintain control. Better emergency-avoidance characteristics, 
too. The  steering's a little heavier, the handling overall's a bit better.
