Michelin XVS Narrow Whitewall 235/70HR15: The Michelin XVS 235/70HR15 whitewall radial is a popular tire for vintage European luxury cars, with OE Fitments for 1981 through 1990 Bentley and 1974 through 1990 Rolls Royce. This tire features a .79-inch whitewall and the modern radial construction offers excellent grip in all environments, and a long tread life. The 235/70HR15 sizing designates a 15-inch wheel fitment and an H Speed rating for safe operation and performance on today's highways. The Michelin XVS radial features a classic tread pattern and vintage sidewall markings for the ultimate period correct look. Genuine Narrow Whitewall Tire Typically wide whitewalls run all the way to the bead. Narrow whitewalls will stop somewhere before the bead, resulting in a narrower band of exposed white rubber. The bright white rubber is added directly to the tire sidewall during initial construction of the carcass, resulting in a truly integrated, high-quality product after vulcanization. This style became popular in the early sixties, eventually replacing wide whitewalls altogether. H Speed Rating H Speed Rated: Up to 130 mph (210 km/h). Often required OE for higher performance trim level classic automobiles. Michelin XVS tire Safety on wet roads. Thanks to a sculpture upgraded from the XAS, which is different on the right and left shoulder, this tire makes it possible to face the major high speed constraints on slippery winding roads.

Michelin TRX-B 240/55VR415 Tire These tires have remarkable grip thanks to the ideal distribution of pressure in the contact patch, and excellent comfort due to increased useful flexing zone. TRX tires are built in the authentic molds and are available in many sizes for European and US autos. Quantities are limited and current stock on hand may be available, but future production is not guaranteed. The invention of the TRX tires by Michelin in 1975 permitted a more even distribution of tension in the whole tire casing, which is where the name of TR standing for "Tension Repartie" ("distributed tension") comes from. The Michelin TRX won renown in Formula 1 racing with Renault and Prost and in the world rally championship on the Audi Quattro, 205 Turbo 16 and R5 Turbo. For the first time, the tire and its rim complemented one another perfectly, working as a single unit. The rim underwent a fundamental transformation, the essential characteristic of which was a flatter, lower flange. This new design of the rim and tire bead resulted in a gradual curvature of the casing, without the "S" shaped flexing inherent in traditional designs. Thanks to this innovative construction, the TRX tire offers better directional stability and makes a great contribution to the active safety of the vehicle, thanks to its exceptional handling close to the limit, especially when cornering. W Speed Rating W Speed Rated: Up to 168 mph (270 km/h). Often required OE for very high performance trim level automobiles. Michelin TRX GT-B tire Steering precision. Like the "MICHELIN TRX", its "Low Profile" guarantees precise steering precision. Low rolling noises. Thanks to its specific tread pattern, the latest version of MICHELIN TRX reduces rolling noise.

Michelin XAS Narrow Whitewall 180HR15 The Michelin XAS 180HR15 whitewall radial is a popular tire for vintage European cars, with OE Fitments for 1969 through 1973 Citroen automobiles. This tire features a 1.75-inch whitewall and the modern radial construction offers excellent grip in all environments, and a long tread life. The 180HR15 sizing designates a 15-inch wheel fitment and an H Speed rating for safe operation and performance on today's highways. The Michelin XAS radial features a classic tread pattern and vintage sidewall markings for the ultimate period correct look. Genuine Narrow Whitewall Tire Typically wide whitewalls run all the way to the bead. Narrow whitewalls will stop somewhere before the bead, resulting in a narrower band of exposed white rubber. The bright white rubber is added directly to the tire sidewall during initial construction of the carcass, resulting in a truly integrated, high-quality product after vulcanization. This style became popular in the early sixties, eventually replacing wide whitewalls altogether. H Speed Rating H Speed Rated: Up to 130 mph (210 km/h). Often required OE for higher performance trim level classic automobiles. Michelin XAS tire Stability & road holding when cornering. Thanks to an asymmetrical sculpture, the tread pattern works differently inside and outside to provide stability and road holding.

ON SALEMichelin TRX 210/55VR390 Tire These tires have remarkable grip thanks to the ideal distribution of pressure in the contact patch, and excellent comfort due to increased useful flexing zone. TRX tires are built in the authentic molds and are available in many sizes for European and US autos. Quantities are limited and current stock on hand may be available, but future production is not guaranteed. The invention of the TRX tires by Michelin in 1975 permitted a more even distribution of tension in the whole tire casing, which is where the name of TR standing for "Tension Repartie" ("distributed tension") comes from. The Michelin TRX won renown in Formula 1 racing with Renault and Prost and in the world rally championship on the Audi Quattro, 205 Turbo 16 and R5 Turbo. For the first time, the tire and its rim complemented one another perfectly, working as a single unit. The rim underwent a fundamental transformation, the essential characteristic of which was a flatter, lower flange. This new design of the rim and tire bead resulted in a gradual curvature of the casing, without the "S" shaped flexing inherent in traditional designs. Thanks to this innovative construction, the TRX tire offers better directional stability and makes a great contribution to the active safety of the vehicle, thanks to its exceptional handling close to the limit, especially when cornering.

The Lamborghini Miura (1966), Ferrari 365 (1965), Maserati Ghilbi (1966) ; de Tomaso Pantera (1970) and Porsche 911 Carrera RS (1972) were the undisputed stars, but the large German saloons like the Mercedes 300 SE 6,31 (1968) and BMW 3.0 SI (1971) also made a strong impression.

Michelin XVS 185VR15 (No Curb Guard) Tire Michelin has been on the cutting edge of radial tire technology since first introducing the X tire in 1949. Particularly important in authentic and historically correct restoration projects for many European models, Michelin Classic tires continue to offer the highest quality radial tires in many original sizes and tread patterns. These 15 inch radials feature the XVS tread pattern and either an H or V speed rating. Michelin Classic XVS tires built in the authentic molds and are available in many sizes for European and US automobiles. Michelin made progress in innovative tire development by differentiating the many elements that form the tire, leading to the creation of Michelin XVS Tires, with an asymmetrical tread pattern. The Michelin XVS was constructed taking into account the different kinds of work done by the shoulders, sidewalls and different parts of the crown, depending on whether they are on the inside or outside relative to the car. Just like a person's foot is asymmetrical, the inside and outside of a tire work differently to give the car good balance and sure handling. V Speed Rating V Speed Rated: Up to 149 mph (240 km/h). Often required OE for higher performance trim level automobiles. Michelin XVS tire Safety on wet roads. Thanks to a sculpture upgraded from the XAS, which is different on the right and left shoulder, this tire makes it possible to face the major high speed constraints on slippery winding roads.

Michelin TRX-B 190/65HR390 Tire: These tires have remarkable grip thanks to the ideal distribution of pressure in the contact patch, and excellent comfort due to increased useful flexing zone. TRX tires are built in the authentic molds and are available in many sizes for European and US autos. Quantities are limited and current stock on hand may be available, and future production is not guaranteed. Call Eclectic Tire Company for inventory updates. The invention of the TRX tires by Michelin in 1975 permitted a more even distribution of tension in the whole tire casing, which is where the name of TR standing for Tension Repartie ("distributed tension") comes from. The Michelin TRX won renown in Formula 1 racing with Renault and Prost and in the world rally championship on the Audi Quattro, 205 Turbo 16 and R5 Turbo. For the first time, the tire and its rim complemented one another perfectly, working as a single unit. The rim underwent a fundamental transformation, the essential characteristic of which was a flatter, lower flange. This new design of the rim and tire bead resulted in a gradual curvature of the casing, without the "S" shaped flexing inherent in traditional designs. Thanks to this innovative construction, the TRX tire offers better directional stability and makes a great contribution to the active safety of the vehicle, thanks to its exceptional handling close to the limit, especially when cornering. H Speed Rating H Speed Rated: Up to 130 mph (210 km/h). Often required OE for higher performance trim level classic automobiles. Michelin TRX GT-B tire Steering precision. Like the "MICHELIN TRX", its "Low Profile" guarantees precise steering precision. Low rolling noises. Thanks to its specific tread pattern, the latest version of MICHELIN TRX reduces rolling noise.
