There's been some buzz lately on the forum about tires and tire choices, and I thought for those of you wishing to stick close to the original look you might find this of interest. Here are pictures comparing a new old stock
6.00 x 13 Dunlop Gold Seal bias ply to Futura P165/80R13 radials.
I bought these tires six years ago for $33 each at Pep Boys, and as you can see in the pictures they are very close to the look and profile of the Dunlops.
I wanted the tall narrow look that you'd see in the early 60's, with the thin whitewall of course. These tires are still on my Series 3.
