Okay, guys (and girls)... I am an amateur classic cougar restorer. I haven't even had a real chance to REALLY look at the car. My dad has had it for a while now, and I am building a garage to put it in to restore it. I was needing some advice: I would like to put 16x7 American Racing Torq Thrust 2's on the front and 16x8's on the back... What kind of tire would work the best? Also, would I need to do anything major to have the wheels & tires fit under the wheel wells so where they don't rub? Another thing: I have been told that 'low profile' tires... those that would fit well with 16 in. wheels... are more likely to blowout. Is this correct?
Either email me with advice or reply to my forum.
If you think 15in. wheels look good on a Standard Coupe 1968 Mercury Cougar, tell me.
Thanks, Jason
