And I like them. Feels much lighter on feet. Easier to turn. Looks good too.

How much were they?
I have these ready to fit. They look great. Good to hear they run well.
Little under $400 each with free shipping and no tax.Quote:

can you post some pics for us?
Porsche std 185/70 15 on 6 inch fuchs. Car is at shop for some nagging electrical issue so no pix right now. Soon I hope. Asking for trouble when you put different era engine in older car. But when it runs....great cruising car with torque. I see you have same car more or less. I also had a Ducati 900 SS but had to sell--wife issues. Just found some pix of it in a box. Beautiful bike.Quote:

Asking for trouble with a different era engine? Have faith my friend, you and I did well in our choice of powerplants:D
And it's unfortunate that you had to unload your bike but it's understandable. At least you still have your Alfa:)
Actually just sold that Alfa on my own to fund full resto on my 70 S coupe. Need to update my sig. On lookout for early 70s Alfa Spider as they still are cheap (see example below). With 7s you might look at the next larger size--195/70 15. These are pretty narrow tires.

you'ld need to go to 195/65 to keep similar sidewall. Or for 215/60 on 7 rears.
I have 7's all round on my 69. I'd like a more vintage looking tire, but needed to know about the 185/70. Thanks for the guidance David.
