Austin Healey 100 Tires
- Both models of Austin Healey 100 originally fitted 5.90x15 crossply tires. If you desire a crossply tire then we suggest the 590 H 15 Avon Turbospeed.
- The standard radial equivalent size is 165R15. The ideal 165-15 tyre for Sprite 100 models is the 165HR15 PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ CA67.
- The fitment of a wheel with a diameter 4.5" or wider allows for the very best Austin Healey 100 tire to be fitted; the 180 HR 15 Michelin XAS.
- The 180 HR 15 Michelin XAS is ideal because it is taller than the 165-15, allowing for better gearing and more ground clearance. It also fills the wheel arches snugly where other tires do not.
- Please be aware that, as the Austin Healey 100 is partially handcrafted and many are modified, some cars have wheel arches that would rub against a 180 - 15 tire, causing friction and damage to the wheel arches and tires. In these cases, the 165HR15 PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ CA67 is the best option.
- The correct innertube for the tires mentioned above is the Michelin 15E innertube.
