Jaguar MK2 Tires

I bought a set of Vredestein Sprint Classic tires for my MK2 Jaguar. I've driven these cars over high mileages for the last 30 years during which time I have also worked as a professional restorer and component manufacturer so I consider that I know these cars very well. Before fitting the tires I completely overhauled the steering and suspension with all wearing parts (including the stub axles) replaced. I spent 6 hours setting the camber, caster and steering geometry correctly. As a result the car handles and holds the road astonishingly well on these tires. The steering (non power assisted) is light and progressive and the car will leave most modern traffic on sweeping A roads without any drama. The tire wear is completely even and the car is a complete joy to drive. These are mid priced tires but I honestly can't see the point of spending any more money than this for fast road use. In my experience, if your MK2 doesn't drive superbly on these with light, pleasant steering then it's the car which is at fault, not the tires.
