Anyone thinking of purchasing the new rear tire (for our cars) BFG Radial TA 245/55/R18? Tire rack has them in stock for $116.00 sale price.
I think regular price was north of $140.00.

Should suit me as I am only a 75 MPH kind of guy nowadays.

Has anybody seen the load rating of the tire yet?
I would be more worried about the load rating rather than the speed rating.

For normal use, this tire is fine, but there are many better tires available...

I was talking to a Mustang owner who had the same tires on his car.

He was raving about how good they were.

I didn't understand it.

It's a lighter car, and doesn't have posi.

That's not at all the same tire as the BFG tire that Marauders came with.

And they don't offer the stock front size anyway in that style so you can't even get a stock sized matched set so what's the point in getting those anyway?

Then he dosn't drive past 50mph or take a corner any faster than a herz.
