    Here is a thread on this very topic when I was looking for new tires for my ‘68 911 L. I ended up with the XAS’s and love ‘em, but here’s the thread if it helps:

    I recently removed Michelin tires from my car and mounted 165/75 CN36's . The car handles noticeably better , just nicer to drive .
