175-16 FAQ
Q: Can I fit a 175 – 16 Taxi tyre on my XK120 Jaguar?
A: fitting 175R16 tyres to an XK120, XK140 or XK150 will spoil the handling, it has the wrong type of carcass, and an unsuitable speed rating. Also a 175 R 16 tyre is too small for a Jaguar XK120.
Q: What is the best sports car tyre in the size 175-16?
A:We would suggest the only 175R16 tyre worth considering is the Michelin 5.50HR16 X. this is built for the AC Ace, AC Grey Hound & AC Aceca. However it is also an excellent radial tyre for pre war BMW 328.
