Non skid Firestone tire

[1LE]

Anders,

I saw these tires, to my amusement, on a restored 1912 Cadillac at the GM Heritage Center in 2006. The tires were fresh so obviously they were repops, but possibly an indication to when the "Non Skid" tires originally were in use.

Not off mine. I still have all four, but the wooden spokes are petrified. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/bs.gif[/img]

That's probably off Charley's first Pro-Touring ride.

When I first realized that the thread was made of words I thought &quot;this is crazy&quot;.
Thanks for the links Pete ! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] I didn´t think I would find anything on the internet on these, but I was wrong.
Yes Ove, I guess they would never put those tires on that car unless they were period correct.

Took a trip to the AACA museum in Hershey Pa this weekend and found these on a car in the basement (special granted tour).
