[DeTomaso] Tire size needed 285/40r15

[Jerry Knotts]

Michael,

It has a little less tread than I would like to run on the street.  Also 
the $700.00 per tire gives me a little pucker.  I guess I may have to 
step up to something in that price range.

Thanks,
jerry

   Michael,
   It has a little less tread than I would like to run on the street.
   Also the $700.00 per tire gives me a little pucker.  I guess I may have
   to step up to something in that price range.
   Thanks,
   jerry

        I have a front tire splitting in the tread on my 71 GT-5
     replica.  It
        is a 285/40 ZR15 Yokohama AVA AV1-40.  I understand this
     particular
        Yoko is out of production for some time, but I need to replace it
     or
        get 2 new matching Front tires.
        If memory serves they are available in Europe.  I don't remember
        where.  I have found a set of 285/40r15 Michelin VHC for 387 lb
        sterling, I don't particularly like the tread for the street.
        At this point the Z rating is not a requirement for my driving of
     this
        car.
        Anyone have current info on this size availability?
        Thanks in advance,
        jerry knotts
