You have no affiliation to D-1? I'm shocked :)

Would be a pretty cool thing to have, though.

Another quote from the auction:

If you think this is a bizarre thing to do, do not waste your time and money bidding in this auction, because you simply do not recognize the quality and/or importance of these four tires.

Typical Ed B. condescension. It almost makes me want to buy them and give them to a friend for his farm truck.

I'm curious if these really are concours. I don't know the rules here but it sounds like these are similar to oem, but a different model or vintage.

I can't imagine they'd even be worth the shipping. I've got a set in my basement, just for kicks, and I couldn't see spending the nearly $60.00 on those, in addition to whatever his ridiculous reserve is. I'm sure if you posted a "Wanted" ad for a set of NCTs, you'd have plenty of people willing to give them away.

You can put anything you want on a concours car. However, if it was not exactly like it was originally, and/or dirty.........then points will be lost. Those are not exactly like the originals and therefore would lose points.

These are not correct for Concours.

DeLoreans came with NCT not "EAGLE NCT"

The "EAGLE" is the the "V" speed rating made later.

The deduct in Concours is the same as if you had Firestone tires.

They are cool to have for sure, just don't buy for a Concours only reason.

Wow, that listing does a pretty good job of hiding the fact that they are only kinda sorta not really original DeLorean tires. I have a feeling this is going to be one of those auctions that's won by someone who didn't thoroughly read the article.

Just like this person:

That is just too funny!

from the ad "because you simply do not recognize the quality and/or importance of these four tires. "

Perhaps Ed should just list the cardboard box he was going to ship them in? It seems to have worked for the playstation guy, LOL

Haha, this is great. I assumed someone would get duped into buying them on impulse. I'm glad these wannabe original tires didnt sell.
