F70-14 Goodyear Polyglas

[surfnturf]

In case anyone wants to see what the reproduction F70-14 Polyglas looks like on a 73 Challenger. I just installed these today after purchasing from another member on this forum. The tires drive much nicer than I imagined and the look is exactly what I was going for. Perfect for my driving style as my wife and I enjoy cruising the coast and the gold country at normal driving speeds.

Looks good,
Out of curiosity, how old are the tires?

tires were purchased new in 2021 and were garage kept with minimal miles since new.

Great!
I hate when I hear guys putting 20yr old tires on these cars.

the original bias-ply polyglass tires were not anything you would want to drive on. they were slippery and unsafe compared to modern tires.

these remakes of the polyglas are modern radial tires and handle just as well (it not better) than you BF Goodwitch and the like.

Thank you for sharing your feedback on the tires. I've been considering them. Nice looking car.

Always liked the look. When I would clean them up, afterwards I would use a paint stick on the white lettering.

Thanks for posting these as well. Think this is the route I plan on going down. They are expensive if you get them new, something for me to consider.

I put them on my car and love the look as well. They also seem to ride real well being a reproduction bias-ply tire.

Thanks for the complinent, I really like the F8 (?) dark green metallic on your car with the W23 road wheels and no vinyl top, it`s a great color combo. I wounder what it would look like with the rallye strobe stripes out of the side scoops on your car...(black or white).....humm?
