Tire recommendation

[GeotechDuck]

I am looking to purchase a set of new tires this summer.  I have a GT350H, stock Shelby suspension, and original Magnum 500s.

Currently, I am running BF Goodrich 205/70R14.

Anyone running 215/70R14 Cooper Cobras?  Do they rub?

Any other suggestions? 

I drive it weekly on the street and highway.

I'm currently running 215/70R14 BFG T/A's on my 66. In my favor the fender lips have been rolled, not in my favor the a-arms are lowered, I'm guessing that combo is essentially a wash. Regardless, no issues at all.

I'm running Firestone Wide Oval 70R14, radial, bias look. They're great.

FWIW - the Vredestein Sprint Classics are available in 205/70VR-14... "Grand Touring Summer Tire".
I have them on the Tiger, they seem very good.

Cannot figure out why the company that makes the small letter Goodyear tires does not make them like the Firestone company does!!!!

John Kelsey RIP was only interested in having Goodyear make reissues of original tires. They have radial tires that they sell but those are reissue of later year factory radial tires. His daughter who now runs the company may be influenced if enough people like yourself contact her and express your desire for a radial look alike to specific bias ply tire. You never know.

Kelsey makes a "polyglass" radial for 14 inch. Would be great if they also did something similar for 15 inch (perhaps 60 and 70 series).

Here are the Firestones on car 937:

I have a set of the Kelsey Goodyear "Polyglas" radials. They look nice and only rub at full lock on the inside of the frame rail. Car has stock location for control arms. The ride and handling is really nice, but I'm not an aggressive driver. They are a size or two over what should be on the car, but they fill the wheel well very nice

I really like the look of the Goodyear Polyglas radial FR/70/14s. But $515.00 each X 4 + tax & shipping = almost $2300.00! Ouch. And they are not concourse correct for anything.

I also have my original Magnum 500's with Repo Goodyear Blue Streaks (They now cost $630 each)
