Well, let's see where this goes. I can always move it to a new or different thread.

Is this actually true though? I can accept that the tyres may physically, in tread pattern and dimensions, appear like the originals, but surely the rubber compound is unlikely to be so. What tyre manufacturer would continue to use 40 odd year old rubber technology just to produce a few hundred covers each year? I'm betting that however original these tyres look, they provide better grip/sidewall integrity etc, now.
