I was gonna say the same thing.
Need to describe the tire exactly, including size and load rating, speed
rating if it has one, how many lbs max it's rated for, and what its max
rated pressure is.

I am into this particular tire.
I have one that I think is original equipment on an 86 syncro westy.
It's a................. "205/70 R 14   97R    Reinforced" ............  I
don't think you can get those
anymore !
it's a Michelin.
Tires deteriorate just with age too, even if not used.  So I'm not sure how
fully I trust a tire with fine looking tread that I know is 20+ years old,
but I hate to see good tread thrown away too.

You didn't say which model Michelin tire.  Agilis, MXT, etc.
