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? Attached image(s)

After much debate I finally got around to purchasing tires. I ended up getting the Vredestein Sprint Classics in the 185/70/15. I got a good deal through Tire Rack by picking them up directly at the warehouse and saved on the shipping. Looking forward to mounting them.
This article (and the price) helped sway my decision to go with the Vredesteins..... https://www.cinturato.net/images/test-classic-tyres-0716.pdf Attached thumbnail(s) |
