HE ADVENTURE OF
X
Michelin innovation
The radial tyre was the first major innovation from Michelin and was initially marketed as the “X” tyre in 1949.
Lancia was the first
car manufacturer to fit the X tyre as original equipment on the Aurelia model.
From 1955 onwards, radial technology became increasingly popular and the majority of European car manufacturers opted for this solution.
The X could be fitted to cars of very different categories, from the original and popular 2CV or Beetle to the fascinating Mercedes 190SL or Facel Vega.

https://classic.michelin.com/en/Classic-Tyre-range/XJag hade ZX sommardäck på min PV i mitten av 70-talet och körde med de på vintern. De var även vanliga hos mina kompisar som körde Mercedes. De var nog lika bra som många av dagens dubbfria alternativ. Det här skriver jag bara som upplysning för ungdomarna som inte var med på den tiden.
