One of the guys that I see at local cruise nights and shows has them on his T/A... I can't seem to remember which year :confused: (86-87-88??) Pretty sure that I have a picture somewhere.
He bought the car new, but it still looks good.
I like the look, but would NOT want to be the guy trying to...
I think that I made it to 2 small/local "events" this year... pretty much everything was cancelled due to COVID - or I had conflicts/issues/work travel. I slipped in some joyrides here and there, but 2020 was definitely not the fun summer that a car guy would like.
Seems like the BFG G-Force Comp 2s would be a good choice?
Did you do a search on here and see if there were other comments? Seems like different folks picked different tires based on varying factors, and the G-Forces have been around for a while... somebody on here is likely using them. When I...
"I" would search and research high & low for something made in USA or at least USA-name brand before choosing the Federals... the tires seem good, but I'm not keen on their origins (that is just how I'm wired).
Which "model" BFGs are available [today] in the right size, and how do they stack up...
ouch. I've had trouble finding the 13's in the size that I like for my little green car,.. did not think that this would happen with these 16 inchers :(
Based on all of that, the choices will probably be even fewer when I need new ones.
FWIW, I have a set of the Federal SS 595 tires (13") now...
There was a whole other thread about this as well.
Good luck with the kit - looked great (I still have it somewhere)... but I broke things taking mine apart and ended up with rebuilt assemblies.
I always remember Car & Driver calling the 5.7 the "OPEC IROC" :D, seems a shame that there isn't one included, they are 80's icons (same for the Turbo Coupe).
^^^ I love the Museum and have been a member almost since it opened.
However, in this case, I'm gonna say that I was a bit disappointed in the size and scope of this Exhibit. The Museum staff is totally at the mercy of who knows about the exhibits and has the right cars and is willing to loan...
I see my car in the background of a bunch of pix from the Demonstration Day (Museum photo by Andrew Taylor): That is the Museum's 440-4 speed Superbird.
Here are a bunch of Turbo cars in the special exhibit
