Does anyone know which tyres are fitted to the Plus 4 now that Yokohama C.drive2's have been discontinued?

As its Morgan they will still be fitting them from stock for many months to come yet.

I also have recently changed tyres to the Dunlop Sport BluResponse and am happy with them.
If you have concerns about ground clearance consider changing to 65 profile rather than the fitted 60 profile. Just check your spare wheel aperture is large enough. Mine was, and my speedo reading were a touch more accurate than before. No more scraping the gearbox support.

I had already decided to go for a 65 profile and have looked at Yokohama BluEarth AE-01 and BluEarth AE-50. Have you a photo of the 65's on your car? I was surprised how much bigger an unfitted 65 looks when placed next to a 60 profile.

Worth a look at Avon ZV5s also , I rate them highly on my +8 , and BHM are really keen on them and make these their number 1 recommendation to customers.
They are not as sticky as Toyo Proxes 1 TR which would be my other recommendation, but these are available only in certain sizes (generally the lower profiles) which I can't use.

I have ZV5s on my roadster and would agree they are pretty, good and not bad in the wet, and reasonable on wear rate.

Ditto and a factory fitment certainly on the Roadsters.
