	I am in the market for a new set of tires for my '71 Pinto.  I 
am thinking of buying either 205/60VR13 Comp t/a or 205/60HR13 Radial 
t/a 60H. 

	A FEW QUESTIONS:
        ----------------

       *Has anyone had any experiences with these tires, in this size
   or any other size?

       *I plan on mounting these on 13x5.5 rims.  I have seen them 
   mounted nicely on a 13x7, but the books specify a 13x5.5 as being
   the smallest allowable width.  Does anyong have these mounted on 
   13x5.5?  Is there excessive sidewall movement and tread center
   wear?

       *How is the mileage of these tires?  Do they wear out quickly?

       *Has anyone read any reports comparing the Comp t/a against the 
   Radial t/a 60H, or the Radial t/a 60H against other tires?  I have
   read many reports testing the Comp t/a, but none testing the Radial
   t/a 60H.

	Please respond to me by mail.

					Thanks,
