Try putting them into your gallery first and then after they have appeared there you can use the Linked Image URL just below the picture when the vBulletin website hosting s/w asks for the pic link. I have had zero success posting pics from normal internet addresses but 100% success with posting pics after loading them to my gallery.

I just put them in my gallery; there was an option to rotate them which i did...but I guess I didn't save the changes so they are still inverted. I tried to copy the link to insert here but it didn't take. Sorry for my ineptitude.

Had Goodyear Eagles but after 14 years (way over due) time to change out!
Avon’ s are pricy but my issue is they do not last long and can’t handle any moisture. (also not available in this area).
So Goodrich T/A’s are on and 245 60 15" fr and 295 50 15" rear.
Talked to my tire guy and 5-6 years should be max for change out.... although
I don’t track. So I was WAY overdue! Not many choices that are DOT rated.
They are a little slick at 48 degrees yesterday, but a little driving and they
work fine.
Just depends on your driving and wallet.

Try it like this;
From the post response window click the insert image icon in the second row fifth icon from the right.
[IMG]  [/IMG]
When the dialog box opens, paste the URL code from your gallery photo, you want to use, that is located in the Linked Image Box below the picture in the Additional Info Section.
When you do it will copy the [IMG] [/IMG] headers preceding and following the URL code. They are not needed and should be removed. If you do not remove them then they will appear on the post as they do on the image, from your gallery, above, .
Delete all the No Thumbnail blank photos from your gallery they do no good. Be sure to save any pics after uploading or you will not have access to them.
Let's see if this helps get you going.
BTW, very nice looking ERA FIA — love the FIA style wheels.
Ed

Avons
I run mine between 23 and 25 lbs. could the Avon’s problems mentioned be that they were being run over inflated ?

I run the nitto 325/50/15s on the rear with a 427 windsor with 4.30 rear gear and a t56 6-speed. I like the appearance of the tire and it performs well on the street. I can roll into it in 2nd and it will hook most of the time...it always hooks in 3rd. I had to have wheels slightly shaved in the rear to have it fit better. Very muscular look just depends on what you like.

Alfa02,
It's all good. As a product of the late 50s, age is relative...
Thanks for the counsel regarding old tires. You are correct...
Will replace my cobra tire eventually. Would love BBs, but undecided.
Stay safe....
Bob
