Subject: Re: DB 3 ltr tyres
Hi Peter,
Fortunately tyre treads are less visible on 50s cars than earlier ones. That said, the tread you have there doesn't look "wrong" to me. The Michelin "X" pattern dates back to that era & I think was a similar tread pattern. Accepted not perhaps a factory fitment, but owners could have opted for radials had they wished.
