Back to the question

As for your handling, if they are the original tyres I would personally ditch them anyway. They may have sttod at the docks for some time, probably flat and then driven on to a boat. Carefully inspect side walls & treads for cracks, there have been a couple of cases of the original tyres failing.

Remember you are driving a rear wheel motor, with modern cars we have been spoilt for to long with front wheel drive and things like traction control. Its back to basics with the rear wheel drive. Hit a bend to fast and yes the back is gonna go.
Whilst on a bend keep it nice and smooth, don't lift off the gas or hit the loud pedal. Keep steering smooth into the bends, no sudden movements of the wheel etc.
I am not saying they are monsters to drive in the wet because they are not (ever driven a capri or the old 3.0 granada in the wet) they do handle well but need some respect. Like all cars there are things to consider, put cheapo tyres on and you will know about them in the wet. Weight of car, shocks/suspension all factor in to how a car handles.
Just get your approach speed right, keep it all smooth and you will find they do handle well for a large motor.

As Nigel says, back to the old rear wheel drive rules - slow into a corner and fast out.
