Default Tyres

The GTB uses 15" wheels and for some time now we have used Vredestein Sprint Classics 215/70 15 on the rear wheels [and Conti Premium Contacts on the front 205/60 15].

The Vredesteins have been fault free and no worry, with quite good enough grip in all conditions and have lasted for almost 18,000 miles. At about 200GBP EACH they are expensive, but the tread pattern looks fine and they fill the arch well to give a 'period' style. I admit to having little idea as to the top speed of my car, but within reason they are stable as well as comfortable . . .

We have just fitted a second pair to the rear wheels, but the front tyres have plenty of tread left, after 12,000 miles
