----I almost feel sorry for your tires as they scream out in agony,,,LOL!.....Bill S

I think they're a little pricey for his budget, but they are killer. I think the blackwalls are gonna look good on his car with the cragars. His first car that he saved a few months back. He's gonna have it a long time and has a lot of things that he wants to do to it. I'll see if he wants to post a photo of it.. Thanks guys for all you input. I really appreciate it and so will he..

In reading what you had set out in post #1, what do you think Cragar's are going to cost him if $286 a tire is spendy?

Just saying but tires are more important than wheels IMHO.

I did see a full set of used Cragar's on Facebook today in CT. They were priced at $1000 for the set of 4.

You can still buy these from John if you are on Facebook? He asking $1000 for 15x8 and 15x6 Cragars c/w 215 and 255 tires. Perfect for your boy's car I would think and close enough to you to arrange pickup in Milford CT

Already has the cragars. Just looked briefly but the firestones look like they would run him $5-600 more for the four tires. Are the radial TA's that bad? Are the firestone that much better than the TA's or are you really just paying for the look? I used them years ago and never had a problem with them. I do like the look of the firestones but I think $300 is a heck of a lot of money to spend on a street tire. Am I wrong?

Just saw the listing. Not a bad deal. Rims and tires look like they're in great shape. Direct fit too. If I needed a set myself, I would buy them.

I run these Cooper tires and feel they are a safer tire than the T/A's and cost less. They changed the font on the white letters and they do look better, but I run blackwall out.
Under $600 for all 4 and free shipping.

Any photos of them on the car?

The Coopers are on my '38 coupe.

Boy that combo looks great on that coupe. They really fit in there nicely. Do you really use that as a trailer car? If so that's great.
