Anybody ever consider Goodyear Eagle GT II tires?

Just broswing Tire Rack and saw these old school tires. Raise White Lettering and everything. I know the Speed Rating is "only" S or T (112 or 118 mph, respectively) but I've got to imagine they would look sweet on a retro ride (especially Grabber Orange).

 

 

 

I wonder how the 255/60/17 or 275/60/17s would look and perform....

 

And....here's the link....

Thats a big Mod. :eek5: I think the first thing you should do is put some sway bars on that chair to beef up the suspension. :do what: It appears to be under a load, and if you get on it, it will probally break. :eek5: :drool: :lol2:

Great tires for an older car -

 

I do miss the lettered tires - don't know why they stopped making them. Especially the newer yellow-lettered Goodyears.

 

But - it's hard to picture 17's on my GT.... :rockon:

 

 

 

....just saw the video showing your rear lighting system. I really like how the lights on both sides go outward sequentially when you hit the brakes. That system will be mod #2 for me. Mod #1 of course is new exhaust.

KCMO - I'm not clicking on that image - thank you very much! :finger:

 

Thanks also on the tail lights. Webelectrics is the place for the system.

 

An easy plug and play install.

 

I only wish I could see 'em as I drive!

 

It's a simple mod - but everyone who see's them - thinks they're cool!

 

And - if you could have been there when I was holding the video camera when Orf lit up his afterburners and almost killed me.... :hysterical:
