I'm getting the run around on tires. A week ago I was ordering the Firestones I wanted until I found out the 225/60 does not have white letters.

Then I had a backup plan that didn't quite work either.

Now I'm looking at the Eager 340...

Anyone had/have them?

Why only 225's,are you going for the stock look? The ones in your picture look bigger than 225?
69 540ci, 755HP 734FtLb RAT, 629rwhp

The Yokie 352's are still available in 225-235-245/60/15 sizes, but in limited numbers. They have the white letters and give good traction compared to BFG's.
Minimum I would put on 15X8s is the 235/60 wide.
I do have 225/60/15 Kumho Ecsta on my Bonnie (15x7) and they are [comic book guy voice] the best tyres ever [/Comic book guy voice] I have had on the bonnie including some BFG's (sh#te) and yokie A005(?). Unfortunately these tyres are no longer available.

I've already got the Yoko 352's on it, I was hoping for something better.

In reguards to the 225/60 being too small:

Definately not. It depends on your front end set up.

This is how my car sits. I already have way more camber than normal just to get the tires in there (-2.5 each side at the moment) The car at the moment has 225/60 on the front and there really isn't the room to go any bigger.

-2.5 deg camber?!?!?!?  I assume your wheels backspace/offset isn't factory?

I had 352's on my old Torana and they were great!

Theres quite a few things on my car not close to factory!

Update:


Currently running the Bridgestone Eagers - had them fitted last week.

Even though they look awesome and it's my first set of white lettered tires: I'll most likely be going back to the Yoko's next time.
