Help Finding Tires
I'm looking to replace my Goodyear Eagle ST's.
Does anyone know where I can get ST's??
If not, what is a good replacement for my '75?

The ST has not been in production for years. If you are hell bent on a RWL Goodyear tire you get to choose between the GTII or the Eagle #1 Nascar tire.

Firestone makes the Indy 500 which is pretty popular with the Vette crowd. I have them on mine and like them better than the way old Goodyears I had before.

There is also the BF Goodrich Radial T/A which has been around for years. I had these on a Camaro years back and they filled the bill.

There is also the Dunlop GT Qualifier which I cannot comment on as I have never owned a Dunlop tire. It is another choice in the RWL catagory though.

The selection of the Raised White Letter Tire ain't what it used to be.

Andy,
I have the Goodyear Eagle #1 NASCARs in 255/60 R15. I can't really give you any comparisons, since I put them on the car before I drove it. But you can give them a look at our next meeting ... I might even let you try them out.

On a side note TRAE!!!!
It was a good thing I didn't make it to the Vette's In The Valley last weekend. While out riding around town Mon., my fuel pump started to go out on me!!! Got it to my Vette (mentor) and when we got it on his rack I found I'd lost one of the end caps on my front A arm!!! If I wouldn't have been stranded on the mountain I might have lost the A arm and crashed off the mountain. Everything is fixed now and the '75 is back home.
See ya.
