When I put in the Dana 60 the first year I put on Pacer wheels and have been running BFG Radial TA in P295/50R15 in the rear because they had the size I wanted and they looked good. I smoke the tires a lot and they hold up the whole season, and usually two seasons. They don't hook up though, and they always took so much weight I had to static balance them. Well over 6 oz. per wheel. I always thought it was the wheels because it never mattered when I replaced the tires, it always took a ton of weight. Since I regularly take it over 100 mph and over 120 mph a lot, I decided to go with a higher speed rated tire this year. I went with a Nitto NT555R Extreme drag radial in P275/60R15V in the rear and P205/55R15V Nitto NT450 in the front . They will hook better for sure and I like the looks, even though I would rather have raised white letters. When I balanced them, neither wheel took more than 2 oz. total. The car rides smoother with less shaking. All along I blamed the wheels and it was the tires all along. Now to see how long they last.
