305-50-15 tires
Does anyone know of a place you can get quality 305-50-15 radial performance tires. I can't find any since they stoped making the euro ta's.

I wish!!!!!
The Euro T/Awas the last tire I knew of in that size, and it has not been available anymore for a while.
I searched for anyone with "old stock" even maybe used ones for a long time then gave up & went to 16 inch wheels for my GT40.
Too bad because they were the perfect 15inch rear for panteras, GT40 replicas & cobras!

I believe Toyo makes a truck tire (Proxe) that is H rated (130 mph) in a 295/50/15. Hard tire with a wear rating over 400. That is the best I have found.

How well do those TA Drag Radials work in the wet?
How about auto cross or road course?

J.P. I've got a pair of 325.50.15 Drag TAs that are less than half gone. $150 for the pair, you pay freight.

I searched for E-TA 305/50s again for a friend last year, and the word I received from a few former sources was the horded stash left over in a few warehouses had pretty much dried up now. Keep in mind the sidewall on a 305/50-15 is noticeably taller than on a 295/50-15; should you decide to go with a 295 instead.
Let us know if you come up with anything left over on the 305s.

Karl...
May take you up on that. By less than 1/2 gone, what does that mean exactly?

J.P. They still have about half of their original tread depth. Brand new, they have only 3 or 4/32s tread depth and these still have about 2/32". I've read reports that they work even better when all the tread is gone, but I don't know how you'd determine just how much rubber you had until you could see some cord showing, and that would be a little umcomfortable for me. They worked real well with my "little motor" (402) but the big'un just makes too much bottom end torque for them. I went with some 345.55.15's that are 2" taller and 2" wider and they do a pretty respectable job after they've heated up. The ones I'm selling are 28" tall and about 11" wide.
