19" tires

[DougVieyra]

So, we have established that it is NOT a 'Diamond Tread' (GoodYear) that you are looking for, but rather some other tread pattern, more closely akin to the later (that which is currently available) Firestone tread. The term 'Diamond Tread' through me off.

 

[J Franklin]

The tire he wants is a trapezoidal tread. Maybe GoodYear had a lock on the diamond tread and logo.

coker has nothing like that. if anyone knows of anything similar id be interested ether in 19 or 16

Remember that tires have a shelf life.

But I don't keep tires on a shelf.

They are Heidenau K60 Scout tires I used them when on my trip to Alaska, Bias belted tubeless but I don't know what load range they are.

did they stand up?

 

[Big hammer]

What about grooving standard tires or using tire chains when needed?

 

[Beater]

I have a grooveing tool and yes that's on my mind

 

[Dollar Bill]

Not pushing the motorcycle tire, just providing info....

did they stand up?

I had 7000 miles on them when I returned and they are good for another 3K or so. My bike has 110 hp and I was riding hiways at 70-75 I think they would last ok.

 

[Beater]

soooo you are using them on a bike not a car?

 

[JonC]

Yes

 

[Beater]

well motor bike tires should probably stay on motorbikes.

just fyi for anyone that's interested these are goodyear and they are called a " studded suregrip" after a bit of a search I also found they are still made in south America

[J Franklin]

You might not find them in 19"

 

[De Konjel]

Think these are dirt-track motorcycle tires

 

[Beater]

no they don't make them in 19 but there do in 16 perfect for my speedster. now anyone here from SA ??

and yes those are bike tires on that speedster, probably work great but doesn't have the right look at all
