I have a set in the garage.Bought them almost new.Had them on the 65 and it was all over the road.Even at the track it was a nightmare.I had the alingment set close to factory with them.Put them on my kids 62 300 and the same thing.Put 165 15 Radials on my 65 and it was great.Redid the alingment later for more caster.My kid ran them for 2 days then put his radials back on.Ill never even think of using them again.Rocky

Those of you that have used them, do you find the measurements are accurate? Specifically the height. Not trying to jack the thread, thought it might be a pertinent question.
Mine say 26 on the side but measure out to 24.5. About the same size as a 165/15 radial.

I have the 28" tall ones on my cuda. Even though they aren't 8 ply, they are fine on my 3800# nose heavy hemicuda. Had em on my car for several years. 165R15 radials do ride and drive a lot better, but I need the tall tire for ground clearance and looks. Short tires up front look like crap to me.
