Recommendations for Tyres
 
Hi,

Was going to put a set of 'old school' tyres on my Cobra, like the high profile Good Year Eagles.

However, I have 17" rims, and all the high profiles tyres like Eagles and Coopers only seem to go up to 15". So I guess I will need to look at 50 or 55 profile 17" tyres.

I have 7" rims for the front. I think the widest tyre I can fit on this rim is 225. On the back I have 8" rims, the widest I can go to is 235 I believe.

Any recommendations on a set of suitable tyres?

Thanks,
Greg

Avon CR6ZZ for the classic look whilst also being road legal and sticky as a half sucked lolly.

The Nittos look good. I'm thinking of going with the Nitto Invo as I can get them in the sizes I need.
