15" tire sizes selection?

[crjohn]

I am looking to order my wheels in the near future. I WANT to get the 15" pin drive wheels. I am concerned about the tire selection that I may have available. I am building a MK III with a somewhat modified 5.0. I plan to use this as a daily driver with little if any competitive driving. What tires are out there and what sizes will fit this wheel set up? I want something that will be good for everyday but still have some decent traction for the occational need for abrupt acceleration from a stop light now and then. Has anyone run the MT 26X10R15LT's on the front and the 26X12R15LT's on the rear? What works for you ?

We have 15" wheels on our Mk3 in the show room. It has a 427 big block and a pin drive set up. The tires we have on it are Goodyear G-Force T/A drag radials. They are a faily sticky tire and make the car alot more fun to drive. The sizes are 275/50r15's on the rear and 235/60r15's on the front.

Best regards,
