they handle far better on these proper peiod tyres compared to modern tyre carcasses, yes tarmac racing cars did fit 205/60R13 tyres but they were very modified to try to keep the foot print on the road. all sorts of things that make for not a very nice road car,

fitting these proper tyres is to improve the handling.
If it is just for a concourse car then an ny old tyre will do.
