Re: [Amc-list] Tires for Your Mat/Amb

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I ran them on 6" wheels on the back of a 84 Mustang GT.
They are OK on the back if you keep the pressure down some. IIRC I ran 28 PSI.
They will induce a little sway and still wear slightly fast in the center. 
Much better on a 7" wheel and I would not use them on the front with a 6".
Mine were the coopers too. Decent tire.
