I COLLECT ALL VINTAGE HALIBRAND AND AMERICAN RACING WHEELS!

I AM CONSTANTLY BUYING AND TRADING FOR WHEELS TO UPGRADE MY COLLECTION...AND THEN SELLING OFF THE ONES THAT I CAN\'T USE!

IN THE COURSE OF MY COLLECTING, I HAVE ENDED UP WITH A GREAT MANY VINTAGE RACING AND STREET TIRES!

I\'M NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO USE THEM ALL, SO I\'VE DECIDED TO TRY AND DEAL SOME OFF!

SO IF YOU\'RE LOOKING FOR THAT OBSCURE WHEEL OR RARE TIRE...PLEASE BOOKMARK ME AS A \"FAVORITE SELLER\"...OR KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR MY sales!

(2) VINTAGE ORIGINALFIRESTONE \"GROOVED REAR R154\" RACINGTIRES (WHEELS NOT INCLUDED)!

AN ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUSMATCHINGPAIR OF THE FAMOUSORIGINAL FIRESTONE \"DOUBLE-DIAMOND\" RACINGTIRES...FOR YOURAUTHENTIC TRADITIONAL HOT-ROD...TOP-FLITE \"CHAMP\" CAR...OR CLASSY VINTAGESPRINT-CAR!

QUANTITY: (2)

SIZE: 7.50\" / 14.00\"- 16\" W

WHAT I AM SELLING HERE IS AN ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUSMATCHINGPAIR OF VINTAGE ORIGINAL FIRESTONE \"GROOVED REAR R154...DOUBLE-DIAMOND\" RACINGTIRES, THAT I JUST OBTAINED FROM THE ESTATE OF A FAMOUS OLD INDY-CAR AND SPRINT-CAR RACER!

IF YOU KNOW WHAT THE FIRESTONE \"DOUBLE-DIAMOND\"RACING TIRES ARE, THEN I DON\'T NEED TO TELL YOU HOW RARE IT IS TO FIND A VINTAGE ORIGINAL PAIR OF THEM IN 16\" DIAMETER, IN GOOD CONDITION!

FROM THE 1950\'s, ALL THE WAY UP UNTIL THE 1970\'s, THESE WERE THE PREMIER DIRT-TRACK RACING TIRES...AND THE TIRE OF CHOICE FOR THE HOT-RODDERS THAT WANTED A COMPETITION OFF-ROADRACING TIRE THAT THEY COULD SNEAK ONTO THE STREET! WITHTHEIR SOFT RACING COMPOUND, AGRESSIVE TREAD PATTERN, AND WIDE WIDTHS...YOU COULD GETGREAT TRACTION ON THE ASPHALT! BUT UNLIKE RACING SLICKS, YOU COULD GET AWAY WITH RUNNING THESE ON-ROAD BECAUSETHEY WEREGROOVED (EVEN THOUGH THEY TECHNICALLY WEREN\'T \"STREET-LEGAL\")!

THE TERM \"DOUBLE DIAMOND\" COMES FROM THE TREAD PATTERN ON THE OUTER BAND OF THE TIRES WHERE ONE DIAMOND IS ACTUALLY MOLDED ONTO THE TOP OF ANOTHER! IT ACTS AS A WEAR INDICATOR, AS WELL ASGIVING ANOTHER LAYER OF TRACTION WHEN THE FIRST DIAMOND WORE DOWN!

FROM LOOKING AT THESE PARTICULAR TIRES, I DON\'T BELIEVE THAT THEY WEREEVER USED FOR COMPETITION, AS THEY DON\'T SEEM TO SHOW ANY SIGNS OF EXCESSIVE DAMAGE OR WEAR! IN FACT, I BELIEVE THAT THESE TIRES WERE PROBABLY ONLY USED FOR MOCK-UP PURPOSES...AS THEYAPPEAR TO STILL RETAIN THE MAJORITY OF THEIR ORIGINAL TREAD MARKINGS, AND THEIR FACTORY \"DOUBLE-DIAMOND\" PATTERNS ARE STILLCLEARLY VISIBLEAND CRISP!

AND THE OVERALL CONDITION OF THE RUBBER IS VERY NICE, ALTHOUGH THERE IS SOME LIGHT CHECKING ON THE SIDEWALLS OF EACH TIRE (SEE PHOTOS)!

I AM SELLING THESE TIRESFOR \"DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY\"...BUT YOU CAN USE THEM AS YOU SEE FIT!

PLEASE LOOK THE PHOTOS OVER, AND THEN CONTACT ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS...OR NEED TO SEE MORE PIX!
