Seems a strange size as Iwould have thought if you had 16's then probably on wider tyres, eg 225 to 245 ?

Unless they meant 15's ?

Nangkangs .... £40 fitted. Job Done.

Great tyres ... and you wont shed a tear when you do burn outs

The last owner put them on mine...shortly to be replaced by Toyos.

My Toyo's are great ,have to watch the top end speeds though

[grahamw48]

Agree.
Had them on my 390....bit hairy driving home though, before they've scrubbed off.

Not the best tyre for a TVR by a long way.

And they were part worn off of eBay.....too cheap to resist

Pirelli P6000's nooooooo they dont call them ditch finders for nothing... adequate in the dry and damb lethal in the wet...

I would "steer clear" of Pirelli's, Michelin's and most Goodyears on wedges, just not sticky enough.

So you wouldn't rule out 'Nankangs' then?
