Looking for a tire recommendation
Ron,
Thank you for the recommendation. They have two suggestions, one of
which might do. At least they still go back beyond 1982 on their lists.
Many other sites cut off at 1984 or later. We still have 1950 era cars
in my area. They are beautiful. I'll keep looking. The Goodrich tires
they recommend might look good on my car.
Thank you,
David
