My front tires finally started splitting and treads seperating.
I called the gentlemen at http://www.kelseytire.com today just to see if there was any movment on production of these OG tires coming back.
Talked to an older gent with a radio voice, and he was pretty knowlageble about the tire and the car. Unfortunately still no good news on that front (not visibly economically viable to goodyear) but he told me he recently talked to a DMC club president in texas or florida that told him he about 30 pairs of nos hoarded away. Interesting but thats all the detail i got.
Anyway, if anyone has a set of fronts(backs are okay for the moment) it would help me out. please reply and lmk what your price would be.
Not exactly excited about putting 30 year old tires on my car but i kinda need them for one of my cars, if i don't find any i'll probably opt for the cooper cobas, shave off lettering and replace with some custom rubber letters that a few companies are doing now…
I also feel bad throwing these away even in poor condition.
