Thought I posted this yesterday,seems to have gone missing.
My S3 Roadster has got really old Pirelli tyres,I am going to put a new set on,E70VR15,in either Dunlop SP,or Avon CR28 Sport,neither are cheap,but the SP looks right.Has anybody got experience of either of these?

The Dunlop SP's are original fitment and I have used no others in my nearly 50 years of ownership, the last set being fitted four years ago, so I can't compare to other makes.
Have a look at 'Longstone classic tyres'.
I believe they have a short video that compares the tyre makes for the E-Type.
Cheers

I replaced my Avon tyres with Michelin. Delighted.

Could you please give the tyre code for these Michelin's.
What I do know is that in the UK each Dunlop tyre is £285 unfitted!!
Also the V rating limits choice. H opens things up but I am offered tyres that are suitable for 4x4's!!

Hello Paul,
just saw you have the D-Type Wheels on your car, what size are they and which spinner do you choose.
Looking forward to your response.
Kindly regards
Ralf
