My experience is the repo Wide Tread Gt's ride fine. Put Polyglas on and I will beat you with a stick.

lol...Lynn
 Truth be told these will likely sit off to the side with a host of other parts until called for. I am finishing the car off in Day II and it will run with Cragar's for the foreseeable future, but wanted factory wheels & suitable tires here in case I put the car back to stock trim someday? There's a lot of things scheduled for storage at this point.

If that is the goal, then Charley is correct; you only have two choices. I have SC 200's on mine (actually not ON it right now, as I have Centerlines and modern radials for cruising around, which we did today). Eddie prefers the look of the Firestones, I prefer the look of the Goodyears.

Just a thought, but having recently replaced a set of tires due to age cracking, with only a few thousand kms on them, I'd strongly recommend waiting until (if!) you decide to go back to Day 1 before buying a set of new stock tires. That way you'd be driving the car on brand new rubber, and won't have incurred the expense if you don't decide to go back.

As much as I like the look of the WT and SC200 tires I'm staying radials
Small Hurst are they making the radial look alikes in this size?

As for the Goodyears... there are no plans for radials...
Trying to put some things in motion while at SEMA this year. Stay tuned!!
