    Deep sixes and TB15 15/60-15 for regular driver?

    Just wondering whether anyone runs this combo on all 4 wheels on a regular driver and has any comments eg versus other 'period' combos like XWX?
    Cheers

    I haven't used that combo but I have used the comparable 185/70X15 (or 175/70X15) Avon with success.
    The Michelin TB and the Avon's are in a different class than the XWX and CN36 repros.
    More like rain grooved race tires VS vintage street treads......
    The racy type are more fun but wear faster and aren't street vintage looking.
    Depends on what you are going to do with your car.

    I have Avon 185/70 all round on my 68. Great to drive on the road or track. Fit under stock SWB arches even with lowered ride height. Would thoroughly recommend them.
