95 cobra R tires
« on: January 31, 2019, 01:31:55 PM »
Hello,  So I have a customers car in  my shop its a 95 Cobra R with 30 miles on it.  We have  repaired fuel cell , flushed fuel system and fluids  and are to the point where we need tires.  His tires are original but dry rotted and will not hold air.   Anyone have source for the original B F Goodrich  ZR tires?   I have searched web and am having no luck.

With 30 miles on it, would it be shown in the unrestored class?  If so, you may only need the correct brand, size and model. 
Brand is BFG
Size is 255/45R17
Model is P255/45ZR17

While the car came with Comp T/A tires, the G Force Comp 2 are a close fit, just missing the P model. If you want the specific tire then it may take years of searching swap meets.

Thank you all for info.  I saw the g force style. Prolly what we will do is buy those and then  hunt for some originals.. He is going  to sell car though  so maybe new owner will have to do hunting.
