'73 2002a Tire questions / recomendations

[James Stone <acen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am in the process of purchasing a 1973 2002a(automatic) and will need to
replace the tires before attempting the 3 hour drive home.  The current tires
are sunrotted and need to be replaced.

I am having difficulty finding tires to fit either set of rims that come with
the car.

the are the origional rims (4-1/2J) 165 - 60 r 13
and the sport rims         (5J)     185 - 60 r 13

I would prefer to have micheln tires on the sport rims but the only tires I
could find via thier website is the XGT4 but only in 70 series.  My question are
thier any other alternatives to this tire and / or is there a problem running 70
series tires on this car.

Thank you.
