That's great for guys that own eighties vintage Mustang GTs, but that that size was never OE on Corvettes.

I know, but since the Pirelli P4000 is long gone, and it wasn't OE on Corvettes but fit fine on my C2s, this at least gives you a vintage size that is a higher speed rated radial to use on your driver.

I will have to look at that for my Caprice DD. Thanks for the post Mike.

Love these speed rated tires for my car, the speed odometer says 160 and ive pegged it more the once. Try that men let us know if you were scared taking the car out of the trailer or breezeing down the Hi-way at that speed !

I agree, I routinely take my '60s and '70s cars up to 100 or so for periods of fun, and I don't feel safe doing that with the bias-ply and "S" or worse rated tires that are about as good as the trailer tires these days. And now I don't have to compromise and use 17" wheels to get good rubber and spoil that "vintage" look.
