Question for all out there. A few years back i was on a web site that gave the details of how many SVT's of each year, color and if conv. or coupe. I believe it was a Ford site but have been unable to find it. Has any heard or been to it? Bought my '98 SVT Cobra conv. new. Now have managed to rak up just over 12K miles on it. Still all original except for front windshield, split shortly after purchase. Next question is I was told my tires are starting to dry rot! They are the originals and not made anymore. What would anyone suggest as a replacement. My biggest concern, as my Mom puts it, is "break before roll". She raced professionly back in the late 60's and 70's in mustangs here in Ohio. Had a '91 GT hardtop that I rolled the tire off the rim because it stuck "too well" to the road in a corner. I keep my car at reasonable speeds but heavy turns in area I live. Thanks for any help!

Welcome to the board Iggy.

The website with the numbers is: http://www.svt.ford.com/svtArchiveCompareCobra.asp?vehicle_one=cobra96&vehicle_two=cobra97&vehicle_three=cobra98

The tires that BF Goodrich replaced our tires with are the g-force T/A KD and KDW: http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/sortTires.do?vid=001837&yr=1997&cs=245&ar=45&rd=17&sw=false&c=1&sortOrder=Brand&pager.offset=0
