Ray,
That's how I remember the original Redlines on my '68 Chevelle.

Dennis &amp; Jason,

Good to see both of you on-line still contributing to the hobby.

I had spotted the difference in the location of the &quot;Wide Oval&quot; placement several years back, but really hadn't noticed how much difference there was in the wording and location, otherwise? This tire will be celebrating 47 years this coming July with the same car.

As for the Goodyear tires, some have used the original molds, but you have to realize that as time went on, there were running line changes. Perfect example is the Goodyear Eagle GT in 215/65/15.... During this tires run from 1982 to 1988, there were 15 documented changes to the tire.

As with many reproduction items, there are compromises made. I know Kelsey spends a great deal of time and effort putting as much of the proper detail in every tire to make the best product he can possibly have made.
