OK, I'm putting new tires on the '75 and from what I've seen or read there are roughly 4 choices. So I'm wondering what everybody else is running and enjoying?
I'm not planning to race or drive the car real hard. I just want something that drives smooth and quiet.
I'm planning on using stock size 225/70/15's. Are there any issues with that? In terms of choosing between these tires.

I keep hearing that, but Firestone's website doesn't say anything about them being discontinued.
They haven't been discontinued, as far as I know. They've been "upgraded" to the Firehawk Indy name, rather than just Firehawk, as they were in the early '90s, when my wife still had her C-3.
I was at the Firestone dealer yesterday, they are discontinued. Get them why you can.
I wonder if it isn't simply the end of the IMS branding partnership, and the tires will be continuing under a new name. Firestone's website is silent, it would be nice to know.
He mentioned somehting about them being replaced with G/T's.
That's good to know. My guess is that one party or the other decided to withdraw from or not renew the IMS branding license. It's too bad, I like having "Indy 500" on my sidewalls.
