Vredestein Tires

[R&M]

I guess things are slow for me in the bottle business today.
Anyway, I am looking for a source for Vredestein Tires.
Specifically 195 x 70 R15 97T. I have 4 on my Healey now and need to purchase one as a spare along with a Daytona Wire wheel. I checked with Tire Rack & they do not carry them. Anyone know of a source?

Thanks

Try British Wire Wheel or Hendrix Wire Wheel. Both have websites and carry Vredestein tires.

Or just try:

Modern cars are delivered with thin and "smaller" spare wheels. Does anybody know about a same type of wheel that can be used on healeys. The spare wheel takes up som much space (or maybe my girlfriend shops to much)

I personally would not like to think of the ground clearence with one of those tires. One fella I know uses a can of the sealer/air instead of the real tire. Or you could just carry a spare inner-tube and the tire mounting tools (and an air pump). I personally use the luggage rack. It has an antique suit case with travel stickers outside and parts and cover inside. Down side is wind resistance.
