Riley - Riley 2.6
The Riley 2.6 was the larger of the two Riley models introduced by BMC in 1957, replacing the Nuffield built Pathfinder, with bodywork that was not dissimilar. The Riley 2.6 had the BMC C series six cylinder 2639cc engine producing 101bhp, but was otherwise similar to the less powerful Wolseley 6/90 (Mk3) variant which was much less powerful at a quoted 72 bhp. Production of the Riley 2.6 went on until 1958.
Riley 2.6 tyre size was originally 6.70x15, and the radial ply equivalent of this tyre size is 185R15. Blockley produce an excellent 185VR15 tyre for this Riley - see full details of this superb quality tyre below:
