I had the S/Ts on the front of my Skylark bracket car with Nittos out back. I used the car in the rain, the tires handled pretty good but it's not like you have a super sticky performance tire. I'd buy 'em again without hesitation, especially for a car that sees mainly street duty. I had an '81 Vette, if I still had the car I would pick these up for the stock rims. Make sure you have the rear bearings in order, a wider tire puts even more strain on them. With the age of the car I'd rebuild the rear bearing assemblies just for peace of mind. They haven't been greased for 30+ years now.
