Got them from tirerack.com. OK on price, Handling & general performance are perfectly fine. Unlike the sets of these I bought in the early '90s the iconic RWL do tend to brown. Annoying. One of those weird little white Mr. Clean sponges from the supermarket and some BlecheWhite whitens them up. Hindsight being clear, and with s pic from a PO vintage '78 I'd probably go blackwall out. If I had to have RWL I would also consider Cooper Cobras. Personal taste.
