Still looking for 215-60-14 for my 85 GT.

I was wondering what you are running on 14" wheels. Does anyone have Yokohama AVID T4's or BF G TA's?

Falken ZIEX 512 225/60/14 (was on there since the previous owner.) All four corners.

They work pretty well. I haven't had any tires on a Fiero to compare them to, so I can't tell you if there are better/worse alternatives. I do like the wider thread though. I'm sure it's on the border of maximum with that one can run on the stock 14" Tech 4 rim.

I have an '86 SE.

Look at http://www.tirerack.com/tir...nce=PAS&startIndex=0

Indy 500's beat TA's in every category including price. Why purchase an inferior product at a higher cost?

BF Goodrich radial T/A's are far from being inferior they are the best all around perfromace tire that I have bought for rain snow and regular driving. They beat Firestone by a mile, my set has 43000 miles on them and are still going strong!
