Has anyone had experience with the repro Goodyear Polyglas GT tires made by Kelsey tire?

 

I got rid of my last set while they still had ****. They look good, but relative to a radial tire, they provide less than an optimum drive. They develop a square bottom when the car sits. Unless you need them for a particular reason, I would avoid Polyglass.

 

I have them on my car. They look awesome when it comes to being period correct but in truth are no match for the ride quality of radials. My personal opinion is if you're going to drive a 50+ year old car drive it like it did back in the day, to me that's part of the experience. I'm glad to use them and will get another set when the time comes.

 

They would go on a GTO with 7000 miles that I bought from the original owner, so I wouldn't be driving it all that much. Truth is, as long as they balanced out OK, I probably would be happy.

 

I think you would be fine. They'll look great on that car.

 

Not sure if they are available or any better of an option but Tiger Paws were an available option on a 70 GTO.

 

Thats one of the best comments on CO ive ever read, period. Part of the experience.
