What's the current thinking, recommendations for tires for stock S1/S2 Elans?
I've got Bridgestone RE92 that are 10 years old and they are well beyond what I consider safe (still lots of tread, but OLD).
Thanks,
Kiyoshi

I put Vredestein Sprint 145R13 on our '66 S2 S/E. Love them (or let me put it this way - we love the car and driving the car so much that those tires are not noticed to interfere with the experience).
Here is where we got them. A local independent tire shop installed them and road-force balanced them.

Another vote for Vredestein. Have them on the S3 and they lokk and work very well!
