I'd be interested in oem tubeless Michelin XAS 165HR13 tires.

 

There’s been discussion lately that Michelin has re-introduced the tubeless version of the 165HR13 XAS.  But I haven’t yet heard from anyone who has actually obtained a set of the tubeless version.  Anyone?

 

The XAS was introduced in ‘65 as a tube-type tire, but a tubeless version appeared, as best as I can recall, in the mid-‘70’s.  The tubeless version was never factory equipment on 2002’s, even my ‘76 came with tube-type XAS’s.  After the tubeless version appeared, however, I immediately switched to the tubeless version because, even in the late ‘70’s, when tire shops were more accustomed to tube-type tires than today, tube-type tires were a nuisance.

 

Since the late 1980’s, however, when Michelin transferred production of the XAS from their general tire production to their Michelin Passion division (predecessor name of the current Michelin Classic division), only the tube-type 165HR13 has been produced.

 

I am eager to see the tubeless version once again! But I also note that the Michelin Classic website, although it shows tubeless versions of some other XAS sizes, does not yet show a tubeless version of the 165HR13.

 

Regards,

 

Steve

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
