I have 235-60 15's on the front of my NAF Cobra, with Trigo 7.5 front wheels...looks good, fills the wheel wells nicely! Trigo says 245's will work, too.

215 X ? what?

215 x 60 x 15 is "typically" as large as you can easily find. The "average" available tire larger than that would be a 225X70X15. Same tread width, but TALLER by 2 inches or so!

235X60X15 has GOT to be tough to find! Edley, what brand, speed rating, performance series tire is that?

Ernie: Dunlop G/T Qualifiers, 235 60 15 AND/OR 245 60 15s on the front.... Am at work on the computer; will have to get specs tonite for tomorrow's posting. 275/60-15s really fill up the rear wheel wells! There was a thread a few months ago listing a lot of 15" tires in "Cobra" sizes. Check back here tomorrow, same Cobra time, same Cobra channel!!

Bob P.

I only see two brands on the Tire Rack link that I would consider. The rest are "All Season" type tires. I don't know, that All Season thing kind of throws me off, it's not like I'm going in the mud or snow with my Cobra,

Goodyear Eagles, 255X50X15 DOT approved race tire! NOW were talking! But BIG money and soft rubber!

Ernie

275X60X15? ,,,,,,must be a typo.
