+1 on the Nitto NT555s. I put them on my 94 Corvette, then later on my Aston Martin DB7 Vantage, which has a 6L V12 torque monster engine. Plenty of grip, quiet, good ride quality, nice price and readily available at your local Discount Tire.

Wish they had these in 15" for the Cobra. I'm staying period correct on the MkIII, so it looks like Mickey Thompson's for me...
