<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: rubbinisracing</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Personally, I like the looks of the GY Polyglass sidewall better than the Firestone Wide Oval. I'll be ordering some sets of the new Firestone Wide Oval radial for cars I drive when they come into stock which I think is around 2/17. If Kelsey does release a Polyglass radial I wonder how they will handle the size call out on the sidewall. Currently, the tire size call out reflects the bias ply nomenclature. Will the radial Polyglass use a radial designation such as FR70-14. The Firestone Wide Oval radial does have the radial size on them but it's not in raised white letters like it is on the GY Polyglass. If the GYs do have FR70-14 on them in raised white letters I won't be buying those. </div></div>

Kelsey has no intention of doing a Polyglas in a radial. He does have radials, Polysteels, Steelgard, Eagle GT's, and Custom Tread.
