Goodyear Eagle HP's..... expensive, but they last a looooooonnng time, and man they stick to the road like you wouldn't believe. but like I said they are EXPENSIVE they only come in Z-rated, and they don't make them in stock size anymore, but that's what I'm getting when my baby needs new shoes laugh laugh laugh

Those look cool Herc. Reminds me of a guy back in Michigan that I knew who had a Dodge Intrepid. It was painted EXACTLY like Bill Elliot's red Dodge and even had the yellow lettered tires.

Those are great looking tires Herc!
Exactly what I would have gone with if I wasn't worried about the speed rating.
The only thing you need now is a black rim to go with them.... wink

I saw an '85 Monte SS mocked up like Earnhardts on the street the other day. I would love to give my car the Nascar look without the decals.

Later now,
Clint

Tell me how they handle herc. I'm still deciding.. (yes I take lost of time, consideration, and plan alot when it comes to something new for my baby).

Alas, I am leaning toward the FireHawks. They are rated better over the Nascar #1's... i'll have to read more reviews and do more research. This is a big thing. Tires can go a long way, if the right ones are bought, and treated correctly.

I wasn't too worried about the speed rating since my car has only reached triple digits a handful of times(can't remember the last time it's been so long)I don't tear around corners like I'm at a race track and I my car has yet to see a dragstrip. So I thought these would be good for my driving style and I like the looks of them. They go with my pace car nicely. I'll post pics when I can. Besides they are a step up from the ones I have now which are some kind of touring tire from good year (they came with the car)

Ok all There on and here's the photos. I really dig how they look. Lately I've been saying to myself something is missing from the side of my car and the white lettering takes care of that problem.

I'll have to agree with you TastyBake.

I've got the AquaTred 3 also. Last a long time and handle great in rain and snow, but DANG, they're way too noisy!! devileek

I've got 50K on mine and they still have plenty of tread left on them. banghead

I'm lucky. My tread is FINALLY going down. Its now almost unbearible to drive on the highway.

Herc: Nice! I didn't know they came in white letters. I thought you can only get yellow. Oh, and I've been on tire rack comparing tires. I'm looking for a low noise, high quality tire that can handle snow the best. Speed is not an option. 118 rating is fine with me.

Probably going to go with the Traction T/As.
