My front tires on my 72 swinger have lots of tread left but are totally weather checked and the side wall are shot. Last time I had it out one tire started leaking out of the sidewall. So time for new tires. They are BF radial ta 205/70-14 on road wheels, not sure of width. I have been looking for tires and there are not a lot of choices. I can get cobra gt 215/70 or the bf's in 205 or 215. The cobras are about $15 cheaper a tire. Any input on these tires or any other brands. I think the 215 will fill out the wheel well a little better. On the back I have 235/60-14, not bf ta's I can not think of the brand right now. They are in pretty good shape yet and can go a while yet. Any suggestion, recommendations would be appreciated.
 
Take a look at Kumho Solus KR21 tires. Probably the most extensive 14" sizes I've seen in a modern tire. Good mileage rating too.

I just put a set of 4 215/70R14's on 68 Barracuda. Almost identical in size to E70-14's of old.
