Default Wide Oval radials are in

There's been some guys asking about experiences with the new Wide Oval Firestone radials... I ordered a set for my Nova...F 70 15 front...G 70 15 for the rear. I got the F's today. They look pretty good. Still a little "round" on the edges, and the tread is a bit different. The lines aren't all the same width like the bias tires... I don't have them mounted yet/waiting for the other 2. Over all I'm happy with the look/performance to be determined soon.

Would love to see side by side pics of the radial versus original bias ply tires...

I like this new radial/vintage look vs. the redline Radial T/As that are available. Getting ready to pull the trigger on a set for my Camaro.
