 That's a good question about the original tire rating. Most all Jensen Healeys would have come with the Pirelli Cinturato 185 70 HR 13 (or Dunlop 185 70 HR 13) when new. I believe that the English equivalent speed for H-rated tires at that time was 130 mph.

Pirelli is making this Cinturato style tire again (sold by tire rack and other places), but it's a modern tire in an vintage package. The Cinturato 185/70VR13 CN6 V is now rated to 149mph.
