Default Wheels and tires

I thought we had a wheels and tires thread started? I could not find so I started a new one, always room for day 2 wheels and tires. Here is a picture of the wheels and tires that where going on my 66 mustang (ops the cheaters are too tall). I think I am now going to put these on my 65 GTO. I love they way the old tires look!

Growing up I couldn't stand the cragars now after seeing the one owner orange l78 chevelle on TC I absolutely love them. Those would look great on my car.

That's a problem running radicals on the front and Bias ply on the back.

For a time in the early 1990's I ran radials on the front- 225-70-15 up front and a pair of 265-60-15 bias belted tires out back. I had ladder bars on it too. I didn't really notice anything terribly difficult with driving the car. Admittedly, those rear tires were always doing smoke shows. I recall a few times setting the line lock in traffic at a red light and there was so much smoke that nobody could see the light change color, and I wasn't even the lead car in line [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img]

When we had the big snow storm here a few weeks back, I was notified that there was a leak in the roof of my storage unit. When I got down there, luckily somehow nothing was ruined, although the units on either side of mine had a lot of damage. I changed to a new unit and in the process took some pictures of part of my tire stash. Enjoy...

The wrapped up tires and the first loose one on top are Firestone Wide Oval RWL F70-14 1969-only for my red COPO that came with them originally


NOS Firestone Wide Oval RWL F70-14


NOS Goodyear Blue Streak Dragway Stock 7.60-15 (cheater)


Stahl 7.60-15 smooth side on Motor Wheel Fly magnesium front runners


Firestone Drag 500 6.00-15 (bad pic) and too small for anything I own - looking for 7.10-15s


Goodyear Blue Streak Dragway Stock 7.60-15 (slick) - oddly they are almost 1&quot; shorter than the cheater


NOS Mickey Thompson Super Stock Dragster 7.60-15 (cheater)


NOS Penney's Foremost AFX 9.00-15 (cheater)


NOS Firestone Drag 500 9.00/28.5-15 (slick)


M&amp;H Racemaster Dragster 9.00/9.25-15 small letters (cheater)


NOS M&amp;H Racemaster Dragster 8.00/29.0-15 big letters (slick)
