Have you tried www.mytyres.co.uk or www.blackcircle.com you may have to ring but they should be able to help. make sure you know the excisting details as you don't specify whats fitted already.

Your local tyre supplier should be able to source them, but not from stock. Use www.mytyres.co.uk or www.tyretraders.com for a guide price but you'll need to add on charges for fitting, valve, balance and disposal if the price is delivery only.

Have you tried Longstone Tyres:
snipurl.com/1gu9j Vredestein 175SR13 £41.00
Was going to say Vintage Tyres: www.vintagetyres.com/results-press.asp
But if you click on 175SR13, it redirects to a 175/70/13 tyre. I think some people use this size instead? I've seen a Vitesse with 175/70/13 tyres..
Rich.

Isn't a 175SR13 a Transit tyre?
|
|
www.mytyres.co.uk lists Kumho Power Star 758, GT Radial Champiro T, Toyo 310 and Uniroyale Rallye 380 in 175/80 TR13 size £23-33 each delivered.
|
IIRC my old MK1, 2 litre had narrower section than 175. Are you aware you'll be changing the overall gearing if all other parts are Vitesse?
The gearbox and diff are a bit fragile as well - I managed to break them.

Try
www.mwsint.com/Info_tables/Classico.htm
I have no difficulty getting 185 R 13 s for my 2000. In theory any decent tyre dealer can order anything, but in practice it is easier to get tyres online.
