Overall Assessment

Customers find the tires a great buy and a perfect fit for their vehicles, specifically recommending them for old-school hot rods and 38 Chev trucks. They were commended for their quality and aesthetics, especially the whitewalls, that make the vehicles attract attention. The only issue noted is a production issue in one tire which required some manual effort to remove rubber extrusions. Also, customers expressed high satisfaction with the service provided at the front counter. The tires outdid competitors in speed of shipping, usability, and overall quality.

After fighting Coker tires to get whitewalls for months, I decided to look elsewhere. After finding Speedway, I immediately bought the tires and they were shipped insanely quickly! Will definitely do business with them again!!!

Tires look great and match the rear tires I have perfectly. One tire seem to have missed the final step in production as it came with thousands of 1 to 1.5 inch long black rubber extrusions which made the tire look like it had grown hair all over it which I had to spend several hours cutting off with an exacto knife. Other then that perfect.

Just what i was looking for

I got these tires for the front of my under-construction, chopped/channeled Model A coupe. In conjunction with 15 x 5 Rallye wheels and some larger rears (yet to be purchased when funds are available, also will be B.F.Goodrich Silvertown/Cokers) on 15 x 8 Rallyes, and the Highway Patrol hubcaps, I will have just the look I desire! I've bought it all from Speedway...

Awesome!
