Not Ranked
Let's state fact's here. From 63-67 Racing Cobras NEVER EVER had what people call "Goodyear Billboards" those tires came from NASCAR in the 70's period (This is a Pet Peeve of mine). That's when Goodyear/Firestone thought it would be a great way to advertise their product for free. The proper race tire for that era, is a Goodyear Sports Car Special, with a thin blue line around the outside of the tire (Also a Bias-Ply tire). I'm sure Glen (xb-60) has some photos he can share. These are facts. Plus I was around during that era and remember them well. There is a company out there that makes Repo. of these race tires, but you have to do the lettering by hand (About 4-hours per tire, the lettering is flush with the sidewall, No race tire every had "Raised White Letters", in that era). We have a 69 Trans-Am and 67 Camaro around here that are running those tires on the street. Can't remember the company's name (Damn) Cheers TommyRot.
