Goliardi

Time for new tires and I am trying to find the fastest rated 15 inch tires (and if I have to - 16 inch tires). Anybody up on what is out there now?

Besides speed rating what else are you looking for in a tire & in what aspect ratios?


If you want a RWL tire with a nice tread pattern & a T speed rating (118mph) unlike the radial TA that only offers S speed rating.

Yikes - do not even know my own wheels. I have 14" rims and am running 245-60-14 with white letters. I would love to have the exact same thing with at least a 118 mph rating but would give anything to have 140 mph rating as I want to go on a road track and have a little fun (but use this car as my SDD (sunny day driver). I am also looking for some rear-discs for these (I have right stuff quoted at about 750 for a conversion kit.)

Hey Jimmie Johnson was into the wall early in what use to be the Bud Shootout on the weekend, Give him a call he only put a few laps on his 4 before he wrecked.

I recently bought "Y" rated Goodyear F1's in 255 16's for my cutlass. I don't think it could exceed their limit in a free fall.

Spent my whole life wanting the "impossible" - too late to change now. The track deal is really more about stability and stickiness than the fact that I intend to touch 140 down the straights before slanging it around the corners of Road Atlanta.
