You can't find the thread or the tread.... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Click Here....

&quot;There were two styles of tires used on a 1969 Z/28:

Goodyear Wide Tread GT E70 x 15

Firestone Sport Car 200 E70 x 15

Both are available in reproduction. The repro Goodyears are physically larger than OE and are polyester cord, originals are nylon cord. The Firestones may be off the original tooling.

At this time no 1969 Camaro is known to have been built with Goodyear Polyglas tires.&quot;

Good thing on polyester cord as they dont flat spot like nylon cords do
anything to make these ride better

All of the Goodyears come from Kelsey and are then sent to other places (Universal, Lucas, etc.). Of course, I get mine from Kelsey. I still sell mine for less, but I do not advertise pricing due to my agreement with Kelsey. If you want the service you deserve, give me a call.
