            Vredestein Classic Sprint Tires /Tyres 

 

We are pleased to offer Vredestein Tires to our ever expanding universe of high quality automotive goods and services. We also supply tubes for the tires we sell for cars with wire wheels or rims that were designed for tube tires. The above photo is of the Sprint Classic tread design. These tires have a vintage appearance that looks right on the car. Vredestein tires handle, perform well and make less road noise than old Michelin's did. We can ship Vredestine tires/tyres to anyone that calls a tire a tyre or a tyre a tire! As the population of classic British cars has inevitably diminished over the years, the economics of production and changing styles and sizes has meant that very few quality tires/tyres are manufactured today that provide the ride and handling that fine sports cars really do need to drive as they were meant to and are very much still capable of today. 

A new set of Vredestein tires on an Austin Healey 3000 or E-Type for example will bring back fond memories of how delightfully well these cars handled in the 1950-1970's when they were often fitted with Michelin and Pirelli's after the original Dunlop tires wore out. Tests we have read that were conducted by Classic Motorsports magazine note that today's Vredestein tires handle better than the old Michelin X's did. There were many choices in those days but no longer. Fortunately for those that want good tires for their special cars, Vredestein still makes fine handling tires.

Vredestein makes tires/tyres in the correct sizes that fit many cars found on the pages of our website. We offer Austin Healey tires, Triumph Spitfire, TR3, TR4 and TR6 tires, Bristol tires, Jaguar E-Type tires, Jaguar XK120, XK140, XK150 tires, MGB and MG Midget tires, MGTD tires, MGTF tires, MGA tires, MGC tires  TVR tires and many British car tires. Buy your tires/tyres from the people that do just about everything for British cars, the one, the only, the one only, only the lonely Billions of Car Parts Company!
