Reply to "Tires for OEM 15 inch wheels"

I don't but a bunch of Shelby and Cobra guys are using them. There is a guy in LA who will actually convert them into Goodyear raised white letter tires for you. They look like vintage Goodyear race tires and perform like that also.
I've heard that about throwing stones since the compound is soft and stick to everything.

I know one 66 owner that says he gets over 10,000 miles on them but I'd expect less. I was getting about 3,500 out of W rated on my SHO.

> Kjeld, I‘m also invested in this tire combination. The Avon’s are track tires, but still street legal. They have about 5mm of useful tread depth and are made with a soft compound, meaning relatively rapid wear with outstanding traction, but will also pick-up small stones and shoot them to rear of the car. Avons are used by the Cobra colleagues and you will find plenty of interesting threads in their forums.
