Wesley’s tire (bleach) white tire cleaner. Old stuff works good. Most manufacturers are no longer offering white letters or white out lined tires any longer. What turns them brown… not keeping them clean I guess. Not sure if an owner thing or company thing. I’ve yet to see white walls, white...

The other issue when replacing the older car tires is the tubes. Anything newer does not do well with tubes internally unless they are designed to work with tubes. I had a friend from a tire shop who would put half a container of baby powder in each one to help lubricate the tubes and allow...

Looks like a knock off from keystone. Try to search them. Popular on the van scene. I may be wrong but I had a set. That center is really bulky and thick.

How about use the Search feature as this topic has been covers about 500 times. Also, you need to include all your cars info as after 50+ years things could had been changed. Syleng1

The narrower of a tire tread and the taller the tire will also help. Higher Tire pressure also helps. Syleng1

Corners will be the true test. Tires flex and “twist”. Typically 1/2” is tight but okay. Syleng1

That is bad azz right there. I love that look.

Still cool today. I’d run them. (Tapping my shades) and tighten up my members only jacket. Awesome pics. Thanks for sharing.

Coker tire

Yup!

Japan- oh so much better than chy-na. They have quality standards still.

tires get old enough to question their age? Shoot mine get the smoke let out very early in life. Lmao!

Coker re-pooped tires are crazy money for the “authentic look.” On the 66’ Barracuda I get asked to “smoked up.” All the time. They are Coker red line BFG’s every burn out is like $60 worth of rubber. “I tell them it will not spin the tires.” Lol- I can’t afford to.

Agree with RRR and please use the search engine feature as this has been covered many many times before. Good luck.

Prep-sol the dewaxing agent for body work will work. Sadly once that white goes brown it never goes back. Like others suggest- white tire paint. Best solution.

Welcome aboard but honestly this has been asked a whole lotta times. Run it thru the search feature.

I did how ever see the car in a later post. Nice car!

If you use the search feature this topic has been covered so many times you will be amazed. SN: what no pictures?

Thank you for the compliment. I’m glad I chose them as they really do fit that car well.

I’ve got the BFG redlines from Coker tire. Basically a BFG with a 3/8” red stripe. Ride really good and sticky for those quick get-a-ways. Expensive as heck from my point of view. But they look good. Syleng1

Oh crap! Canadian Karen.

This is the 215/60/15 Cooper Cobra on my 72 Demon. There is more room but I wanted tires I can rotate so it’s the same up front. The profile difference is minimal between the two sizes you mentioned. Sorry I don’t have any good shots of the rear width. It’s “okay” looking from behind, but I...

Thanks all! yea after more research I decided this is the son’s car and if he wants the factory 85 Daytona turbo Z wheels chrome- he can polish them. Chipping is the main reason plus issues with armor all spray on coating seems to have a softening and color change effect. Thanks for the info...

Looking for a Referal for a “good” powder coated of 4 @ 15” aluminum fwd rims here in Connecticut. If I were closer to cudachick I’d be pm her. Anyone have their rims done and can recommend someone in New England? I’m not son much worried about trucking there cost. I’m more worried about return...

I personally like the black steel wheel with caps look.... especially with red line tires.

you can barely see them but that’s what I have my slicks mounted to. This was me and my boys at the track on Sunday. Lebanon Valley NY. Good day. No rain.

1) what do you have into them cost wise? 2)has the buyer given you an idea on what they can afford to pay? And does that fit what you want? 3) if I was selling complete SBP ralley wheels and tires - I’d be at $800.00 dependent on tread and tire condition. Rim and trim ring / center condition and...

Wheel and tire swaps at dealership level were normal. Especially on a car that did not have the right options to sell right away. plenty of cars rolled off the dealer lot different than how they were ordered.

Part of traction is driver related. I personally (when itchy) have spun the tires at the track all the way down. Less coffee and more suspension adjustments have gotten 225/60-15 coopers (old Cooper street tires) to grab better than cheap slicks. But nothing grabs better than hot and sweaty...
