The short story is my wife and I decided to purchase the car for ourselves! I haven't driven the car yet, it still needs a couple of items to make it right to drive, and there are still a lot of "unknowns" (since I really haven't driven the car yet, only started the engine). One of items to do is to buy new tires. It currently has Goodyear Blue Streak "Track only" tires on. I need to get tires that will be primarily for street use. One question I have is, how best to properly size the new tires. The current tires simply have 6X15 in the front and 8X15 on the rears. Any thoughts on tires and tire size?

I've gotten a lot from reading the many informative posts on this site...thanks to all you contributors!

Are you looking at the tire itself, or the rim markings?

Can you post pictures of what you are working on so we can assist you properly? Pictures always go a long way when it comes to Cobra replicas, because they are not all the same.

Good luck and welcome to ClubCobra.
