Default tires

hey guys im gonna run to farm n fleet, dunno if anyone here has heard of it, but they sell tires, and mount them and balance them for a pretty good deal.

I was wondering if someone could look at these

http://www.farmandfleet.com/catalog/...px?h=080101004

and recommend me a tire + size. Im on the stock pony rims. Im only looking to get 2 rear tires right now, and then in a few weeks i will get 2 front tires. Thanks guys.

edit: its a 1991 mustang gt 5.0

The Coopers are okay, haven't had much experience with them, but don't expect the Tiger Paws to last very long, they're not very good performance tires.... if you spin, they will wear really quick... I work at a place that does that as well... and if you drive it aggressively, i'm going to suggest against the Tiger Paws.

I wouldn't get coopers or uniroyals. They are both crappy tires. I'd get these: http://www.farmandfleet.com/catalog/...101003&p=1in the stock size. There a little expensive but they are pretty good street tires.

If that company carried the bfg kdws tires I'd recommend getting 245/50/16's but they don't care them so I'd get the 225/60's traction t/as.
