640SR13 87S TL ZX Blackwall Tire
Michelin ZX Tires are high quality Michelin radials for many popular European applications requiring a 13 inch radial tire and authentic styling. These 13 inch radial tires feature Michelin's ZX tread pattern and an S speed rating. The Michelin ZX was the innovative product of years of tire engineering development. This tire evolved from the revolutionary X Radial and brought even more reliability and performance to the tire market. Radial tires held distinct advantages over the bias ply tires of the era with better ride characteristics and much better tread life. Radials also paid off at the fuel pumps with dramatically increased fuel efficiency. The ZX line draws from an incredible legacy of Michelin Classic tires and is available in popular 13- and 15-inch sizes for American and European automobiles.Popular on: 1955-1963, Mercedes Benz 190 SL (W121) 6.40 SR13 87S
Blackwall Tire
Since the introduction of carbon black rocked the tire industry, the original recipe for most tires has been a solid black sidewall. For classics and collector cars alike, it's hard to beat the no-nonsense appeal of a classic blackwall style tire. British sports car, classic truck and even hot rod enthusiasts love the way a nice period correct blackwall tire looks on their vehicles.
S Speed Rating
S Speed Rated: Up to 112 mph (180 km/h). Often required OE for higher performance trim level classic automobiles.
Bias Look Radial Tire
The term "bias look radial" is something that Coker Tire created when we introduced the American Classic bias look radial product line. This means the tire has the appearance and the sizing profiles of a vintage bias ply tire, with modern radial construction. This provides an original look with a smooth ride and longer tread life, compared to bias ply tires. We offer bias look radial tires for vehicles ranging from the 1920's through the 1970's.
Michelin ZX
The MICHELIN ZX: the Michelin X evolution that provides even more driving sensations. Grip on slippery roads, thanks to huge numbers of tread pattern sipes, this tire provides more grip during all weather conditions compared to the MICHELIN X. The advantages of the radial tire compared to the conventional tire can be seen in all areas: Significantly improved road holding, grip and braking. Significant reduction in fuel consumption. Great comfort thanks to the flexibility of the sidewalls.
