165 R 13 Tyres
A 165 R 13 tyre is also an ideal radial alternative to a 590 - 13 or 600-13 cross ply tyre.
The Dunlop Aquajet 165 R 13 SP Sport tyre was developed towards the end of the 1960 and has a very evocative tread pattern. There are alternative tyres in this size, including some budget tyres. There is also the 165R13 Michelin XAS which is an excellent tyre and the Michelin XAS asymmetric tread pattern was developed in 1965.
However, the best sports car tyre in the size 165 R 13 is from the PIRELLI Collezione range; the 165R13 PIRELLI CINTURATO CN36. It is a fabulously progressive tyre which also benefits from modern grippy compounds and is a genuine period tyre for cars from 1968 right through the 1970s and well into the 1980s.

Dunlop SP Sport Aquajet
The term Aquajet was coined because the SP Sport or Aquajet has small holes in the side of the tread pattern designed to eject water and maintain grip in wet conditions.
