Default 15 inch wheels guys. What size tires are you running?

What size, front and rear and brand of tires are you running? Also, what speed rating?

How do they perform?

Thanks!

Rob

Default 15" tires

Rob,
I just purchased a set of Cooper Cobra tires, they are H rated.
Am tired of looking, and decided I had better make a choise.
MY wheels are Trigo, Halibrand reproductions. Fronts are 7 1/2" with 265 50 15's, rears 9 1/2 " with 295 50 15's. Hope this helps you.

Don.

They all stink. Best is probably the Avid s/t. I have BFG radial TA. They could be MUCH better. After all, they are a M&S rated tire.

I will be going to the Goodyear Blue streaks as soon as they are available. Considering the Hoosier Street TD's as well. In metric sizes 245/275 60's are close to the original size.
