It seems that most really good tires are directional these days. I have always stuck with the same size tires front and back so that I could rotate them on the same side without issue.

I'll watch this thread to see what others have to say. I sense an opportunity to learn .....
yea. i didnt think about that. your probably right.

If you want black bullits, go buy yourself some plasti-dip, and coat the anthracite portion black.....done! Then you can always change them back to anthracite if you don't like them. I've been thinking about doing this, except buying the 10.5" rears from American Muscle. Then you can just change colors whenever you feel like it.

Do a search for plasti dip on here.

And yes, most decent tires are directional, so rotating means fronto back, and vice versa, only.

Great looking car! I was looking for a Mineral Grey convertible, but couldn'tpass this deal up. sounds like you guys got a great deal too. Congrats!
