to race around in a fun way
I had a 1973 Triumph Spitfire 1500...that was a fun car around the twisty and winding roads...always gave me the feel of being in a rally...fun cars

ok
before I have the "goodyear suburbana 75 R15, (pic one and two) and I was thinking it was the ultimate on retro tyres , but the car feels like in a 100 yards going to be brake apart, they are to hard,
that kinde of tires are not made enymoore here in mexico so I found the " mud terrain 2 from bf goodrich" (pic 3), I think they are 135 R15, and the feel of the car change a lots, super soft and good tracktion , on and off road!!
