I'm going to be replacing the +10 year old 165R15 tires on my low mileage '74 2.0L soon and I'm debating between these two Sprint Classic sizes from Vredestein.
165HR15
185/70HR15
Will I see any real difference in the performance and road feel between these two?

I can't comment on the tire itself, but the 185/70-15 is an excellent size for a near stock replacement.

I use them (Vredestein) on my 1976 911S....I really like the way the tire rides and handles
