For the first set of rims I had on my Regal I bought Cooper Cobras 275/60 rears and 235/60 fronts on 15 x 8 ARE's.
IMO they have an aggressive tread.

Those do look like they have a nice tread pattern. I've looked at those in 235/60 & 215/65 15's & seem a bit cheaper than some of the other brands.

I got mine in 245/60/15. They were less than half the price of the same size BFG's. They were also less expensive than Coopers which I never cared much for ( never liked the look of the tread pattern) and were surprisingly much cheaper than Mastercrafts which are really expensive now considering I remember them being about the cheapest "performance " tires you could get years ago.

I've had good luck with Coopers as of late. Have them on both my Wagon and my Delta 88. View attachment 208825 View attachment 208826

Curious.... those look like 15x7 rims, but what size tires are those, looks the same size all the way around.

I have BFG and Cooper Cobra's. I like the Cooper's slightly more and cheaper. The Hankook, which are a good tire brand, sound like a good choice, as well as Milestar,especially if they are much cheaper.

The wagon has 225/70/14 on the front and 275/60/15 on the rear. Rims are 6" front and 10" rears. They were leftovers that were hanging around the shop so I put them to use.

Correct, the Delta has 255/60/15 all the way around but on a 15x8 rim from Wheel Vintiques. The Delta benefits from the beefier rollers over a Cutlass since it's just a bigger and heavier car.

I meant on the Delta88 only.... and thats exactly what i plan on doing for my '79 malibu.

15x8", 4.5" back spacing with 0mm offset with american racing thrustII polished rims with BF Goodrich 255/60 all the way around, i currently run the same wheels, but 17x8(rear) and 17x7(front) and im not too fond with the different set of wheel/tire combo it came with when i got the car a year ago last month.
