I just put new wheels and tires on my car. Vintage Wheels 5 pin 15x7.5 on the front and 15x9.5 on the rear. Mickey Thompson 26x10 R 15 Lt #6653 on the front and 26x12 R 15 LT #6654 on the rear. These are H rated tires at 130 MPH. I’ve only had them on for a week. They are smaller than the BFG’s I had. But this combination has balanced perfectly. The ride is softer. I have not pushed it yet so I don’t know about handling. The tires took 3 weeks to get through Big-O tires. Had a lot of problems with the wheels but Bob Lacey at Vintage Wheels took care of everything. Excellent service.
