I dug the original spare tire out of the trunk tonight just to see what it really looks like. I've never seen one up close before. I like it!!

I remember those. I even had double whites on my '70 Harley.

Get the measurements of the double lines and call Diamonback Classics-
they will put them on a radial for you. Its about 245/tire though.
Hmm double redlines:Dou::Dou:


I was very impressed with the spare on your car Adam- perfect tire and perfect wheel!

$245 a tire...I'll live with the single stripes for now:D

I was thinking of having these in a radial for my Wildcat!

I wish these repro tire companies would expand the sizes they offer to include sizes used on our late 60' early 70's full sized cars.
Beyond the sizes F-78 or G-78 which are popular on mid sized cars.

How about some H, J, and L sizes in 70 and 78 series that don't have wide gangster whitewalls?

I had L-78's on my '72 LeSabre way back when. Those were some tall tires!

In some respects I liked bias-ply tires over radials for smoothness
(Once warmed up) and quiteness.

:cool:

[Phil Genario]

yep,they make the same old tired gangster whitewalls for the same old tired played out 1950s cars.remember, any car other than a camaro or impala from the 60s or 70s merely doesnt exist.period.the fonz lives!!!!heyyyyy!
