Vette(s): 1979 Black coupe. 11256 original, documented, miles on it when I bought it in April of 2000. It now has 13100 on it. Oyster interior, like new. Everything original, everything works, except the clock. Paint has a couple of minor flaws.
I also have Good Year Eagle GTII's on my vette. I think they look great. They seem to have good traction, also.. Ride good too.

I have Firestone Firehawk's on my CE. 255/60-15's and I love them. Some don't like how they handle, but they work perfect for me. Of course I don't race mine either.

I'm still runnin' Eagle ST's. They are about 8 years old, but not many miles. But then again, the car doesn't have many miles (27,500 now, but 24,500 when I bought). |toungecool|

I get some body vibration at times and I think some of it is because the need to be balanced and/or replaced.

I switched to the GT IIs because I was told by the tire place that the ST's had been discontinued. That's why I have two different types at the moment. One has a slow leak in it so I hope it lasts a while.

I use General XP2000. They seem to hold up pretty well, even though I am fairly rough on them. I practice a hole shot now and again and don't EVER mind a power shift to second at around 4500. They also seem to give a good ride. I think I would buy them again. The raised white letters seem to be just big enough to stand out with the Cragar wheels.

Vette(s): 1976 L48 RoadDemon carb, Weiand intake, 3:36 gears, DUALS.
BFG Comp T/A P225/70r15. I like how they handle and ride. Thought about going with a 60 series but was a bit concerned with 'road wondering' because they were wider.
