Looking for a set of 4 Michelin tires to be mounted on new 16" x 7" TRX aluminum wheels for my 1979 Mustang Pace Car. Will be driven less than 1k miles per summer. Thanks!

Are they indeed a "TRX" wheels, Bob? "TRX" was a metric sized wheel, or are they a true 16"Originally posted by 86STANGX3 View Post -
Yes, original were 15.35" diameter. These are new production by LMR in a 16" diameter. Coker makes repro Michelin tires for the original TRX wheels, but the tires are 1979 technology for $400 each! I have mint 31k mile TRX wheels, but I would rather spend $650 on a new set of these 16" TRX wheels and get some tires with newer/better technology to put on them.

Makes perfect sense!!! Awesome that they made something that will fit the look for todays technology.Originally posted by 86STANGX3 View Post
In Michelin they offer the Primacy HP, Pilot HX MXM4 and Premier A/S(not likely be the best option for what your looking for)
Have you researched the options yet?Comment

No, any recommendations? The wife is all about spending as little as possible (of course). High mileage is not an issue (the tires will probably outlive me!). LOL1979 2.3 Turbo Pace Car, 1993 5.0 LX SSP (NHP)
