That era was peak automobiling for me. I drive much less now.

Continental was OE on Volkswagen. The fashion at the time was to upgrade to Kleber. It would be interesting to have data on them as well. The era ended when Kleber opened an American factory. They 'weren't as round', and the tread pattern changes. Who knows what else.
