I have L60's of the 14" variety on 10" wheels.
Wheels and tread width are about the same &
no uneven wear.

Hi,

is there any chance the Goodyear Polyglas GT H70-15 will be reproduced (for SFGTs and 300 Hursts)?

I doubt it but you never know

Thanks

Carsten

I spoke with Mr. Kelsey yesterday about the H's and he said, "never say never, but don't hold your breath."

Each time a new tire is brought out, it represents a full year of design, development, testing, and trials before they see the light of day. Therefore, you must put forth a great deal of resources (time and $$$$) to make this happen, and you have to know that there is going to be numbers of tires sold to justify the resources placed into that item.

This is one reason why the G70 took so long to come out! The tire has a limited number of vehicles wearing this as a OEM application, the tire molds had to be built from scratch, etc. BUT...... that tire is here now, the price has been reduced, and I need to help you guys get them on your cars!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes.
Kelsey has both RWL types (Elevated size and No Size) as well as Red Stripe and White Stripe.

The elevated size and no size difference is a model year thing. Goodyear started putting the tire size in RWL Mid year 1969. The lap over months were October thru December. Hope this clears the water rather than muddies it up.

Gary,

I will keep an ear open for you F70-14. It was great to meet you and I hope that those tires complete it!!!!

For the L60-15. I was just informed on Wednesday that Tuesday afternoon, a number was actually assigned to the tire. What that means is the tire is through with the testing stages and is going to be produced. Here are a couple of pics I was able to take on Wednesday. I do not know what the pricing is or when they will show up on the dock, but I will be more than happy to let you know when they do!!!




As for pricing of other tires, I was informed that they will be going up on October 1. If you want to lock in the current price, get with me ASAP!!!!!



that is lookin good!!!

I have been told that they will show up any day. Best guess that they will be like the first shipment after the first of the year. If you are interested, we can get everything ready and have the tires shipped out the day they come in.

In short, we are going to see these within 3 weeks!!!

Do you know or can you calculate the rev/mile of the new L60 X 15's ?

I'm looking to improve my 4:10 highway driving and make my car even more driveable.

I think I may have figured it out...
There are 63360 inches in a mile.
The height of the tire is 27.97
The distance around would be PI(3.14)X 27.97 = 87.83
rev/mile would be 63360 / 87.83 = 721 rev/mile

Do you think a E60 X 15 would mount to a 15 X 6 rim? or would the tire be too wide and look terrible?

Still tryingto figure out a big & little combo..

I just got off the phone with John and he stated that the 6" rim is a little narrow for the E60, but it could and would work, just expect to see a little more wear on the center 3 bars of the tread. It would pucker the bead in .5" per side over the stock size 7" rim.

As Mr. Kelsey stated, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!" If you have a 7", you could go E or F60 with no issue.
