Tires

[MickyD]

I want to put new tires on my 28 roadster. 425/450 21 I believe are on it now. I want to put white wall tires but they are over $225 at most places. Any ideas of a good but not expensive tire. For safety I will pay more if I have to. Need to find a shop that can mount them in Lexington,NC that I can trust.

Lot of positive comments on European Classics. Blk walls $105 per. W walls $182per

Agree have heard good things about them. I iwll probably order a set of blackwalls from them in a few months.

Shop around for free shipping and then my tire choice is GoodYears. I have yet to hear a complaint about them. And they look classy.

Hopefully you can share the information with all of us, not just one member.

Actually, I offered to assist him if desired, with the installation of the tires. We are about 40 miles away from each other and I have put on many a set of tires.

A nice offer. Fitting these tyres is easy peezy - hardly need any tools even. I made up a stand to balance them based on an old stub axle and an old set of bearings. I consider balancing these tyres essential.

That was very, very kind of you.

Where did you buy them and what was the price ?

When mounting, seek out the garbage bag method
Makes it much easier

I am curious. What is the garbage bag method?

I've never used it and find the ordinary way easy enough to not bother.

I have Firestones. My last set were Good Year, but I think they wear a lot faster than the Firestones.
