Chrysler Jensen C V8 Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Michelin XWX given 80% (205-70-15-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 7000 spirited miles
I am old enough to have driven on these tyres when they were the supercar tyre of choice back in the 70’s! Clearly although looking the same they have been upgraded with modern technology as they are grippier and more precise than the originals. They do sacrifice a little grip to a modern tyre but as compensation they seem to give more feedback and a more progressive breakaway then is now customary. On a powerful classic car that is a good thing. Just like the originals they emit a slight whine that increases in pitch with speed - I don’t find this annoying, it adds to their authentic classic character. On wet and slippery roads they are remarkably effective with strong grip, excellent feedback and smooth breakaway. If you like driving your classic car fast you will enjoy these tyres. Happily they
ride softly and quietly over bumps and best of all they have worn extremely slowly on a powerful car driven with enthusiasm. Yes they are expensive, but I really feel they offer good value for money and they look right too.
