Wheels and TiresNeed help with wheels or tires? Got fitment issues? Have questions about tire performance and handling? Ask all of those questions here!
Ok, I am a bit of a stock guy so just had my original 92 RS wheels restored. The car is black with silver wheels, again, stock. My tires are stock 215/65R15. I would like to go to raised white letter (because I like the look). My question is, does anybody make RWL tires in this size besides the BF Goodrich Radial T/A? I would go with those except the reports on them are not that good. So, looking to see what else is out there. I see other sizes in RWL but don't want to screw up the handling or change rim sizes. Thanks.
Seems Like The Major Complaint Is The White Letters Turning Brown Quickly.
The new formula isn't as good as it used to be, but it'll still keep your whites looking brite. Heck, I use it to keep my black sidewalls from turning brown.
They're OK, they're still a 15" tire, so handling is going to be less ideal than say a 16 or 17, but they'll ride nicer. More sidewall so more cushion, narrower so they're less likely to pull into ruts in the road. For what they are, the handling is really decent.
They're a stock size tire, HO Z28s came with them stock. The only rubbing that might occur will be with the steering wheel almost at lock.
Pretty sure they're a 400 treadwear tire. I always got good tread life out of them, and I drove my cars HARD.
