Michelin
Does anyone know where I can purchase a vintage Michelin tyre 195/50/15 MXF Sport,prefer a pair but anything will do. It has an unusual centre 'gap'
on the thread pattern.
Thanks,

These 'vintage' tyres (first in Australia in about '98) have been suoerseded since about 2004, so good luck.
Search on Google in Australia and you will find at least two tyre companies who advertise them as available, though their websites may just be two
years out of date.

A number of Subaru WRX (and other) clubs list these in a (fairly short) list of acceptable street tyres for use at e.g. track days, so you might find
some used ones by advertising on one of their forums.
