Thanks Jim. I argee on the uniqueness of the ride. One thing is the cornering. How they will 'power slide' around a corner. I try that in my 2nd or 3rd gen and it's 'ditch bound'. I try it in my cousins Vette's and they are in the ditch. I tried it in a Porshe and it went into the ditch. The only time I've ever had a 1st gen get away from me was in the rain. I think that was because the passenger wasn't belted in and after a couple of slides they were practically in my lap. It's nearly impossible to steer out of a spin with someone in your lap. I wouldn't want to give up my power slide cornering for a set of original tires. I think maybe Coker has original looking red lines that are radials? Anybody got em?
