Obviously these aren’t made anymore but I always loved the look of the Goodyear solid raised white letter as a classic tire, I know I could get BFG’s, but what else are you guys using that has an old school look?
Since these are dated 1995, I’m getting worried on taking x-way trips and would like to keep these, but get a “trip set” mounted up also.
Input appreciated

Both my cars now have Mickey Thompson sportsman s/t tires on them, I have zero complaints .... liked them so much on the coronet I just put a set on my 70 dart
There's always cooper cobra, that's was my 2nd choice
 
I put Cooper Cobras on my last car and am happy with them.

Never thought of the M/T’s or Coopers, just looked up the image and they both look great and the look I’m after
 
I have the Coopers on my Bee and on my daily driver

Just checked out Eckler site, they have a good looking Goodyear poly steel, I’m getting great leads here, thanks guys!
(Yep, ZZ Top, Under Pressure, lol)
 
I’ve used Coopers too, can’t beat the price. They’re about the only 60 series 15” you can find at a local tire shop, not mail order. Even the BFG TA’s are licensed and I think Coker makes them now.
 
I put Cooper Cobras on my Satellite last spring. I'm happy with the look and the ride.

I just googled them. They are a sharp looking sneaker. Me likey!
 
How do the Coopers compare to the Radial T/A's? The T/A's have had their share of less than happy customers due to quality, and being a somewhat "slippery" tire. I had a set that would spin at the drop of a hat on a mild 8:1 360. But they were 5 years old also. Never owned a set of Coopers.
 
Another advantage to the Coopers is that they have more 15" offerings than BFG.
 
Are you looking for 14s or 15s? Fourteens are getting few and far between.

Another vote for coopers. I haven't used the cobras, but i have had two sets on my diesel pickup, and i love 'em. Made in USA too!
