I wouldn't put anything other than Avons. They are sticker then you would think, just as the axel that undid it's CV. (yes we found that the axels where a little to short under full compression, it's fixed now.)

Several years ago, I had a group buy on the Billboards from Roger Kraus, I wonder if we could again, if there's enough interest that is ?

I have a couple that would be on board for a group buy on the AVONS.
I'll contact them when I get more people interested.
I've started a new thread on the group buy below.

Not available in 15" sizes for a Cobra. There used to be a decent selection of 15's to fit a "Cobra" but most are no longer available. If DOT legal is a concern the top choice continues to be the Avon CR6ZZ. Expensive? Yes but it continues to amaze me that people will spend thousands to get another 50 HP but not spend the money to actually be able to use that HP!

One of you asked about the Hoosier Pro Street tires, I have them on my Model A highboy hot rod. They are a very good tire for something like that, but definitely not for something that is a sophisticated handling car, sizing for a Cobra might also be difficult. The correct tires make such a difference in the way a Cobra drives and handles, why would you put tires on you car that make it less enjoyable to drive? Let's get a few more people on the Avon group buy and all make our cars as good as they deserve to be!
