The good-value Austone tyre has the correct load and speed rating for the classic FX4 London Taxi.

While it is a perfect choice for a taxi, this is not a cheap alternative radial for a certain lightweight British sports car of the Fifties. The taxi tyre is the wrong size, the tyre's high load rating makes it an uncomfortable choice and its speed rating is entirely unsuitable for anything sporting.

Jaguar XK owners, please see the Avon Turbosteel 185VR16 93V and Vredestein Sprint Classic 185R16 93V Classic & Vintage Tyres |for the correct radial tyre for your car.

FX4 owners, carry on buying in confidence.
