Guys,
I'm thinking about putting a set of Vogues on my 68 Eldo. I want 235/75/15 with white & gold stripes. I can't seem to find that size on line. In fact, I see very few 235/70/15's.  Are those sizes getting phased out?
What kind of reputation does Vogue have?
Thanks, Bob

Bob,

See if this link works;

www.discounttiredirect.com has Vogues in the size you want for about $165.00 each.

Talk to Neil Flavin.    He just got rid of his Vogues that were on his 66 Deville convertible.

Yea....I took the Vogue tires off my 66.  They're hard sided, LOTS of road noise and did not like them.  The were 235/75's and I put the original 205/70/15's back on from Diamond Back Tires with the correct white wall for 1966.  Rides so much better, softer and quieter.  Vogue is a good tire for wear but hard and noisy.  The difference on day one was absolutely amazing.  I'm glad I did it.

Guys,
Your comments brought back bad memories of my last set of Vogues years ago. I'm gonna go with Diamond Backs

Good choice and you should be ale to get the correct white wall for your year too.  I'm thrilled with my Diamond Backs. I opt'd for the ones made in Georgia for $10 more per tire, versus made in China. I'd rather keep the money here, even though they are Toyo tires, it's American Jobs.
