Review Summary
The tires provide excellent handling, stability, and traction, even in wet conditions. Many customers have used them on classic and muscle cars for years with great satisfaction. However, a common complaint is that the raised white letters on the tires tend to turn brown over time, despite cleaning efforts, which may be a deterrent for some customers.

I am buying tis tire again.
I put this tire on my 1966 Plymouth 23 years ago and I am just now changing them out because they are old. I only drive the car a few miles a week. I still have plenty of tread left. I am replacing with the same tire.
Muscle Car tire upgrade
I purchased a 1969 Ford Torino 351 GT with reproduction Polyglas tires on it. I'd forgotten how bad bias ply tires were - the car wandered all over the road, the tires squealed easily - it felt like there was a brick on each wheel. Traction in the rain was scary. I replaced them with 215/70-14 Radial T/A's - a good match for the original F70-14 size. Huge improvement - much better traction wet or dry, better grip in the corners and off the line. They even ride better. In my opinion, installing these tires is the best single thing you can do to improve the handling of an older muscle car. A+. Only drawback is you have to change the old "bias ply" front end alignment settings to get the best handling from these radial tires.

lucen y son excelentes
rodee estas llantas en mi chevy por 6 años 80,000 km y siempre respondieron en carretera y en ciudad resistieron todos los baches y me dieron confianza en todo momento creo que el precio es competitivo y te da el plus de una cara del neumatico que hace lucir genial al coche sin duda en estetica y rendimiento complacido totalmente
Low Red '93 Silverado
Have run 255/70/15s for years with stock suspension in my '93 Silverado; always felt like it looked like a little old lady going through a mud puddle with her skirt pulled up. Installed a Belltech 2" lowering kit. Now it sits where the factory should have put 'em in the first place...would love some T/As in maybe 265X75s to fit the factory 15" alloy wheels to fill the rear fender wells better, and a little more "attitude". Closest thing is the Long Trail Tour T/A. May have to opt for them...don't like the off-road connotation; turn the white lettering inside. Great tires, T/As. Just the ticket for real Detroit Iron.

Best Tire Ever Made
I have ran many other brands of tires on many differant vehicals and have found no equale to this tire. The first set were still good after 75,000 miles when I traded in my 1996 Cavalier in 2001. I put a set on my 2007 Ranger and have gone 60,000 plus miles on them and still have plenty of tread life left in them, but will have to replace them soon due to in correct alignment and worn suspenion parts that has taken its toll on two of them. Overall still the best tire for any car on the raod.

OFFER MORE SIZES!
I'm running 255/60/15's rear and 235/70/15's front on my 75 Hurst/Olds. These tires have worn well and ride/handle good on my 4000+ pound car. No other tire manufacturer caters to the muscle car crowd and these tires look GREAT! I really wish they would make them in 275/50/15's again (I don't need Drag Radials).
