Brand: Michelin, Profile: 80, Width: 6.00 | Ford Pilot 1947 to 1951

Ford's big, powerful saloon for all eras. Post war, the V8 wore a 600-16 crossply tyre as standard.

Ford's postwar top-of-the-line saloon used the same recipe as its prewar ancestor, with flathead V8 power and upright styling. Well-loved, upright and a bit respectable compared to where Ford ended up placing itself in the 1950s.
