If you do this wheel swap, stay away from BFG Radial TAs. Their design has not changed in years. Take it from a muscle car guy. The Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 is a much better tire, except you will have to run a 235/60/15 which is 26.1" in diameter because they don't make a 245/60 which is 26.6". I was running 15" rims on my 92 Mustang 5.0. I was given a lightly used pair of Radial TAs, that replaced worn out Indy 500s on the rear . I bought new Indy 500s a week later. I run Indy 500s on my 400 HP+ Chevelle and had 235/55/16 Indy 500s on my 01 Monte Carlo LS. I had 45K on them before I replaced them due to a Christmas trip to Denver where the forecast was for snow every day. They had 5/32s and I did not trust them.

the sig reads "bred for the track...loosed on the streets"...as in turning a race machine loose where it can get to women and children...or ricers and putzmeisters lol


the link provided about the tires shows snow traction as the only place the T/A really dips low...and it rarely snows here...but I will ask about the Firestones and see what the price point is.

Trust me, wet, dry, cornering and above all straight line accelleration, the Indy whoops the TA.

You can call dibs on his spoiler. I also think he has some custom engine paint done. :p

those look like some fat slicks without the tread lines...

hold on hold on... i think i called dibs a long time ago on those rims... i'll have to find the pm but i remember talking to tbat a long time ago about this... like in 2007, maybe he'll have to auction them off on a closed ebay auction or something or maybe we can get a web cam auction going on...
