Vette(s):
SOLD - "The Toy" - '70 Convertible
SOLD - "The Beast" - '90 ZR-1 (#682)
SOLD - "Betty" - '28 Ford Model A Tudor
SOLD - "BLKBRRD" - '78 Pontiac Trans Am
"BLUBYU" - '04 Coupe
Put a set of 16" BFG T/As on "The Toy" in the fall of '04 and have been very happy with them.  A set of 15" BFG T/As got put on "BIGBRRD" but didn't get much road time on them before it went into the bodyshop last June so can't say anything good or bad about them on that car.
 
Put a set of 18" Yokohama tires on the "Silverbuckboard" about a year ago and have been very happy with those as well.  Much quieter, smoother ride than the GYs that were on it.  Handling improved some as well but that was expected going to a lower profile tire.
 
All three sets of tires were purchased at Discount Tire.
 
And I agree on the Firestone brand - won't have them on a vehicle again.  The only good experience I had with them ended with the Explorer recall a few years ago.
