Re: [DML] Re: Best white letter tires to buy?

[gmfm1@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I have been using Cooper tires on my daily driver cars now for 25 plus years and have a pair on the front of my Delorean for a long time and I have never had a problem with flat spots or any other kind of problems. They have held up very well and I recommend them to anybody who needs tires.
they are supposed to be American made as well.
Thanks,
Gary Masie
