Not Ranked
Salt Flat Specials will look great on your coupe. I have similar wheels on my Lister that Chuck Beck has made for it by a different company. I am using Dunlop Sport 8000's (Z-rated) on these wheels and they look and handle great so far (only 300 miles). They are a fairly sticky tire so I don't expect them to last 40,000 miles but that's a trade off I am willing to make for the good grip that they have. I would also at least upsize the rear wheels and tires as wide as the car will allow so you can get the widest tire in the back for traction. My Lister has 16"x10" wheels on the back and with 430HP/430lbft it is fairly easy to break them loose.
