1600M Tyres - 1972

[RWX3L]

another year and another successful pass of the MOT. However the garage suggested that one or two tyres may be required before the next MOT... a full 11 months away, but time to plan a purchase!

I'm sure my average 1000 miles per year may give more than a years life in the existing tread! But as i throw it about a bit, i'd like to stay on the black stuff!

I have T-Slot alloys.. so just want to change the tyres....all 4.. not worth messing about... doubt i'll change the spare as i have no intention of trying the change it at the roadside.

suggestions welcomed.

If your not doing many miles try kuhmo v70a. you can get a 185/70 giving a roll of 640mm. very close to original. Soft or medium compound they are both pretty sticky. supersoft are just to sticky and they wear out too quickley, great for sprints and hillclimbs though.
