Ok , I have had it with my Copper Cobras!I bought them three years ago new knowing they were discontinued.O n the May Pinto Stampede a belt shifted on the left rear. Since they are no longher avalible, I put on and old old I had . Then yesterday on the Northern Stampe to visit Cookieboy the right rear blew. I know there are now white letter 205 60 13 tires sold, I see FEDERAL tires on ebay 205 60 13. Has any one bought any of these?

I try to stick to the name brands on tires.
If you want to go on the less expensive, look for those that are at a place that will not be going anywhere. (pep boys, Big O...) Just remember you typically get what you pay for.
-
I would too , but I dont know of any name brand company making 205 60 13 tires any more.

gotcha, I run 15s right now and will be switching up to 16s when I get the rear axle changed over to 5 lug

i ordered a set today. I wanted new tires before I start my summer adventures (including the Stampede).Ill let every one know how the tires perform once I have a few miles on them.

i have seen those tires on ebay for a while now, wish bf goodrich would make another run of those tires, would buy a set in a heart beat.

Got the tires yesterday. Plan to have them put on next week. Currently on a road trip with Jim Madison to pick up a Pinto!

Got the tires mounted and on the car.They balanced out fine and are smooth and quiet on the highway. I hope they hold up well.I would like to paint the sidewall letters white. Any one have good luck doing that?
