I have those same Firestone fronts for a set of drag wheels I'm setting up for my 69. Tony hooked me up with the Firestone Drag 500 rears w/ tubes a couple months ago. I'm still needing to pickup a good set of 7" wheels to mount these on but trust they'll look great for static display and shows. I like the Drag 500's as that was Kym's go to tire when the car raced SS/LA throughout the 70's. Although the rears were bigger back then.

Thanks for the offer Tim,

I do have a pair of T/T here but they have holes for the valve stems drilled towards the center of the rim, and the tubes for the slicks have the valve stem offset toward the outer edge of the rim. I'm either going to use a set of black steelies or perhaps drill new holes in the T/T rims and mount these up.

I'll get to those one of these days...
