maybe i should stay out of this conversation but......

Back in my teen hot rod racing days I ran some trailer tires on my 56 Chevy and loved the trailer tires when they were just about worn slick......I called them my "cheater slicks" and they were 6 ply. A couple sets of them served me well back then.

....then a few years later the topic came up and I learned, at that time, the tire manufacturers were going to quit making tires in "car sizes". I think at that time the trailer tires were in 1/2 sizes so they didn't fit a production car rim.

Its been 57 years since those days so maybe my mind is a little confused?!!!?

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
