Was Wondering the differences in ride characteristics for all 3 available sizes:
165/80, 185/70 or 195/65, what do you recommend? |

The XZX was a very common replacement tire back in the day, and some of the 1.7 & 1.8 cars came with them from the factory. The 2.0 did not, because the S speed rating (112 mph) of that tire was slightly lower than the published top speed of 115.
The XZX is still available today from Coker Tires, and is the most affordable of the true vintage look tires. But it is still much more expensive than the modern tires you priced at Tire Rack. |
