Re: {Chrysler 300} Tire Recommendation

[Kurt Brueske <kurt.brueske@xxxxxxxxx>]

I’ve only driven it twice before I dove into some restoration tasks…I’m glad I didn’t do much more otherwise I might have had tire failure while driving.  I wish they were road worthy…I really love the hashed white stripe along with one solid.

Wow! Amazing that you're still driving around on those. Does it get much road use?

How does it drive? I heard that the captive air tires affected the handling due to the weight and stiffness, but those were the earlier ones with the sidewall tire valves.

Would be an interesting story for the newsletter if it hasn't been covered before.

Good morning!

I am looking for a good set of new tires for my 1962 300H.  I absolutely love the ones that are on the car right now -- Goodyear "Double Eagle" twin whitewalls with lots of tread -- but they're date coded 1967 (!) and close inspection of the inward-facing sidewalls shows some cracking.

Looking for something safe with good ride quality that looks good too.  Appreciate the feedback in advance!

Thanks,

Kurt
