  • Michelin Superconfort 150/160X40 Tire: Vintage Michelin tires are full of history. Their legendary quality and innovation started nearly 100 years ago with the "cable" tire" and produced dozens of industry firsts through the years, literally leading the tire industry. Eclectic Tire Company is the exclusive distributor of Michelin Classic products in North America and proudly offers these iconic tires for collector automobiles. Replacing beaded edge tires, cross-ply tires with bead wires formed the second generation of detachable tires. These tires benefited from two major innovations, the introduction of carbon black and the appearance of textile wire cords in the tire carcass. The incorporation of wires into the bead in 1925 led to an improvement in tire retention on the rim. These tires originally benefited from two major innovations prior to their creation, the introduction of carbon black in 1917 which led to a five-fold increase in tire service life and the appearance of layers of textile wire cords parallel with each other in the tires carcass, which gave rise to the so-called "cable" tire in 1919 and the "cable comfort" in 1923, the first low pressure car tire. Resulting from research which led to even lower pressures and slower wear, Michelin brought out a very low pressure tire in 1932, the "Superconfort". 1935 saw the launch of the Superconfort Stop S the first tire with a heavily ziped tread pattern, specially designed for wet surfaces. At the time, Michelin was the only manufacturer who knew how to make this type of tire with the famous wavy "zigzag" sipes, which greatly improve safety because of the excellent grip they give. As its name suggests, the "Superconfort Stop S" tire offers exceptional comfort, in addition to its performance on the road. Since the introduction of carbon black rocked the tire industry, the original recipe for most tires has been a solid black sidewall. For classics and collector cars alike, it's hard to beat the no-nonsense appeal of a classic blackwall style tire. British sports car, classic truck and even hot rod enthusiasts love the way a nice period correct blackwall tire looks on their vehicles. Bias Ply Construction Bias ply tire construction is a method that was used from the 1900's through the 1970's on passenger cars and light trucks. Bias ply tires feature ply cords that run at a 45 degree angle to the bead, and overlap in a crisscross pattern, depending on how many ply layers are used. This creates a strong tire, but bias ply tires have a tendency to follow breaks or ruts in the pavement. Bias ply tires are the most authentic choice for classic car restorations and traditional hot rod builds. Eclectic Tire offers a huge variety of bias ply tires for many applications.

  • Michelin Superconfort 130/140X40 Tire: Vintage Michelin tires are full of history. Their legendary quality and innovation started nearly 100 years ago with the "cable" tyre" and produced dozens of industry firsts through the years, literally leading the tire industry. Eclectic Tire Company is the distributor of Michelin Classic products in North America and proudly offers these iconic tires for collector automobiles. Replacing beaded edge tires, cross-ply tires with bead wires formed the second generation of detachable tires. These tires benefited from two major innovations, the introduction of carbon black and the appearance of textile wire cords in the tire carcass. The incorporation of wires into the bead in 1925 led to an improvement in tire retention on the rim. These tires originally benefited from two major innovations prior to their creation, the introduction of carbon black in 1917 which led to a five-fold increase in tire service life and the appearance of layers of textile wire cords parallel with each other in the tires carcass, which gave rise to the so-called "cable" tyre in 1919 and the "cable confort" in 1923, the first low pressure car tire. Resulting from research which led to even lower pressures and slower wear, Michelin brought out a very low pressure tire in 1932, the "Superconfort". 1935 saw the launch of the Superconfort Stop S the first tire with a heavily siped tread pattern, specially designed for wet surfaces. At the time, Michelin was the only manufacturer who knew how to make this type of tire with the famous wavy "zigzag" sipes, which greatly improve safety because of the excellent grip they give. As its name suggests, the "Superconfort Stop S" tire offers exceptional comfort, in addition to its performance on the road. Since the introduction of carbon black rocked the tire industry, the original recipe for most tires has been a solid black sidewall. For classics and collector cars alike, it's hard to beat the no-nonsense appeal of a classic blackwall style tire. British sports car, classic truck and even hot rod enthusiasts love the way a nice period correct blackwall tire looks on their vehicles. Bias Ply Construction Bias ply tire construction is a method that was used from the 1900's through the 1970's on passenger cars and light trucks. Bias ply tires feature ply cords that run at a 45 degree angle to the bead, and overlap in a crisscross pattern, depending on how many ply layers are used. This creates a strong tire, but bias ply tires have a tendency to follow breaks or ruts in the pavement. Bias ply tires are the most authentic choice for classic car restorations and traditional hot rod builds. Eclectic Tire offers a huge variety of bias ply tires for many applications. Michelin Super Confort Stop S Tire: Grip & security on wet roads. With a heavily siped tread pattern, made using the famous wavy “zigzag” sipes, this tire provides excellent grip on wet surfaces.

  • Michelin XAS 180HR15 Tire The XAS is a high quality Michelin radial for many popular European applications requiring a 13-15 inch radial tire and authentic styling. These radial tires feature Michelin's XAS tread pattern and an H speed rating. From its launch in 1965, the Michelin XAS remained the reference tire until the end of the seventies. The first tire with an asymmetrical tread pattern, the inside and outside of Michelin XAS tires work differently to give the car a good balance. Michelin made progress by differentiating the many elements that form the tire, leading to the creation of the XAS. The XAS 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. This major advance allows the XAS tire to give remarkable stability, exceptional road holding ability and exceptional levels of grip in all conditions. The first production tire designed to run at 210km/h, (131mph), its exceptional performance led to the XAS being used in racing in Formula France in 1968, circuit racing, rallies and hill climbs.

British sports car, classic truck and even hot rod enthusiasts love the way a nice period correct blackwall tire looks on their vehicles. Bias Ply Construction Bias ply tire construction is a method that was used from the 1900's through the 1970's on passenger cars and light trucks. Bias ply tires feature ply cords that run at a 45 degree angle to the bead, and overlap in a crisscross pattern, depending on how many ply layers are used. This creates a strong tire, but bias ply tires have a tendency to follow breaks or ruts in the pavement. Bias ply tires are the most authentic choice for classic car restorations and traditional hot rod builds. Eclectic Tire offers a huge variety of bias ply tires for many applications.
