GT Classics 1.3 White wall tires

Remove this ad
I found a replacement for the Demensions that just got discontinued.
http://tiredlr.com/shop.php?getDetails=set&tireID=1904




$77 a tire.
I got a price, to ship to My house in MA $418.00

I need a set for my 81. I cant rock regular white walls on the wires i have for it.

I know jay has a source for some too. And jay, I thought about it. When i come up to Canada (in 17 days ) It will be me and 3 buddys, wiht are shit in the trunk. I wont be able to take tires home with me. (i was joking about strapping them to the DTS roof, lol)

$418 isnt bad though. When i got my Dimensions i bought them at the spring Carlisle car show, from the Cooker stand. I think it was $90 a tire, and i brought them home with me.

Id like to grab a set before anymore get discontinued.

.

Keep shopping. Those are the exact same tire as the ones I have. You can find them cheaper than that...

Compare the treads. Identical...

Found it. 52 bucks each from tires-easy.com, and 77 shipping to Boston for four. Buy me a beer

Re: GT Classics 1.3 White wall tires

I need a new set of tires, both because my whitewalls are the crappy .75" ones and my treads are pretty much kaput. You guys saved me the trouble of having to search myself haha

Re: GT Classics 1.3 White wall tires

And the whitewall isn't exactly the same, after I saw them on a couple cars I wasn't sure I still wanted a set. Here are a couple pics mounted.









The whitewall is slightly narrower, and closer to the wheel. Not sure if it would look right.

Re: GT Classics 1.3 White wall tires

Hm, yeah I see what you mean. But either way it's still better than the .75". It's definitely closer, and with so few options to choose from nowadays, it's not so much of a choice anymore.

Re: GT Classics 1.3 White wall tires

For the price my buddy Jay just found, I can deal. Lol.

I do owe you a beer. DAMN. And since the Legal drinking age is ONLY 18 up there, I surely can do that!
17 Days...

Re: GT Classics 1.3 White wall tires

WTF the Enduro and the GT are like you said, the same, though ones 59 and ones 52.

But oo yah, sooo SOLD!

I remember there was a size that rubbed the inner fenders up front. Is that the 235's or the 225 75?

I want to put these on my 81.



Ben, you must have a huge picture collection of Caddys... to have a whole series of pics of caddys with wider whites, but not correct ones! Your the master.

Re: GT Classics 1.3 White wall tires

My '90 Brougham has 225's on it, and they rub slightly when the wheel is completely cranked.

lol, you have no idea. I had thousands before the crash, now I'm rebuilding my collection. But I notice things like whitewalls, so whenever something stands out, I save it for reference.

Ben.

Re: GT Classics 1.3 White wall tires

Stock size for the 81 Fleetwood is 225 75 15. That is one plus to these tires, they come in the correct size! D IVs didn't...

Instead of a beer, I may be talked into blue leather seats! LOLOLOL
