Default Radial T/A vs Firestone Wide Oval Radial

Anyone have any experience with both the Radial T/A tire vs the new Firestone Wide Oval radial? My 1970 GTO originally came with Firestone Wide Oval RWL tires. I currently have the reproduction Wide Ovals on the car so it looks like it did on the showroom floor. I am thinking about getting a set of radials for a better driving experience. I will mount those on another set of Rally II wheels I have. Would like to hear from anyone who has bought and used the new Firestone Wide Oval Radials. Thoughts and opinions are appreciated! Thanks, Jimmy

You'll be happy to know that we're in the process of writing a story for Poncho Perfection magazine on the new FR60-15 Wide Oval tires. Keep your eyes open in an upcoming issue!

I have talked with several guys who have used the tires and say that the Wide O’ Radials act very similar to Radial T/A’s. Give me a call. I have a $60 mail in rebate to Coker till the end of July. My cell is 816-654-3400.
