Not Ranked
I just looked at the sizes listed on the Goodyear link above http://www.racegoodyear.com/products/vintage.html none of the sizes listed are close to fitting 7.5 and 9.5" wheels.. The 8.0x15 for the front are close, 26.8" will work up front OK.. but in the rear you go from 23x10.5 to 27x14.. The 23x10 gets you a 22.8" overall diameter (think top speed) and the 27x14 gets you an 18.1" section width.. Can you get that much tire under your fender?? I couldn't. I know the Trigo's give you some space on the offset but enough for that? Plus, are you running fronts 4" larger overall???
My calculations give you a net loss of 5 mph at 5500 rpm with the 22.8" tire over a 26" (295/50) and 7 mph for a (305/50)...
What sizes are you guys running???
