My friend and I got into a heated debate today. He wants to put redline F70-14 tires on his 70 challenger and claims that they were factory optional. My research tells me that the only tires that were available were raised white letters or white wall tires. As much as I would love to see his car with the redlines, I don't think he is correct. Can anyone back me up with proof either way that redlines were or were not available for the 70 challengers?
Much appreciated ! (and hopefully I don't owe him a case of beer !)
As far as Redlines being "factory optional", No....
As far as Redlines ever being mounted and displayed on a 70 E body, Yes.... several "back in the day" factory promo and road test/advertisements were done with early 70 E bodies wearing Redline tires... so I'd say split that case of beer
