      I dunno. What's the speed rating and UTQG rating.

      I know the 215/70ZR-15 Pirelli P4000 Super Touring is W-rated and carries a UTQG rating of 320AA.

          Those P4000's changed my life...

          Took Duke's advice on the P4000's this past summer - also installed a pair of Delco Reactek's at the same time. Before the tire swap I figured a '66 BB coupe was always going to wallow/dive in the corners due to the added iron in the front - the yaw into and out of sweepers was terrifying especially when getting on or off the throttle - almost kissed the gaurd rail a couple times. Then I S-canned the S rated tires and slipped on the Pirelli's. Drives like a new car now. Yeeowwweeee.

              Did you have any problems mounting or balancing them? I read some not-so-great comments on one of the tire store's websites about balancing issues that worried me a bit so I haven't purchased them.

                  I just put P4000's on my 67 with rally wheels and had no balance problems. The tire rack shipped the same day I ordered them and I got them the next day. So far I like them!

                      No problems here with balancing. I haven't yet ventured too far over 100mph for an extended period though... The Pirelli's are mounted on repro (pinned) KO's. Although they did use clamp-on weights which do ding-up the outer rim... ugh.
