Fabian, congrats on the tires! I am running them on my ragtop (both tire styles you show in the picture) and they look the part...........just remember that they are a tube tire only. Lots of talcum powder in the tire when you mount them. Enjoy! |

got my tyres today Strange tread pattern. Never saw any tyres like that back in the day. The usual Pirellii tread pattern was the one on the right in this photo:  I wonder when the two tread patterns were available? Keith The Tires on the Left were on the rear of The Goss Choptop when he had it, Keith Goss Ran A 185/70x15 CN on the rear and a 175/70x15 CN36 on the Front Both tires sizes had the same tread pattern. 175/70x15 CN 36 is the same height as a 145 mich XZX but a little wider they look great on a lowered cal look and handle great 165x15 and smaller have the tread pattern on the right 175/70x15 and larger CN 36's have the tread pattern on the left call a Dog Bone tread.. |

I just think it is funny that KS stamped the vintage photos with his name, yet the ones he actually took are unstamped. Irony. I guess that is "Speedwell Protection"  |

I guess that is "Speedwell Protection" Nah, it's called "Internet protection" – not that that helps much these days.  As for my own pic, who cares about a pic of a Brit in shorts? |

Hmmmm interesting - I am determined to find a pair of 215's for PROJECT 66 Also I thought some of the rear suspension/axle tubes was Chromed - maybe those pic's are from before the chassis was re-detailed  |

This was indeed an early photo. Check the frame horns and torsion tube – they're all dirty. Note also the non-fresh-air heater boxes which Keith and the FAT crew modded to fit the header. I may even still have those somewhere. |
