What tire are people using to convert the original spare wheel (FD) into skinnies for the strip? I've noticed that 16" tires are normally used for skinnies.

 

Never mind...I did a different search and got the info I need.

 

wht did you come up with, iv been wanting to kno this also but havent been able to find it.. thanks

 

Firestone coker classics.

 

i know someone who was running a Harley Davidson front tire on the FD spare. sorry I cannot remember which tire it was. I'll try to find out.

 

I ended up buying 500/525-16 Excelsior tires from Coker tire. They were $99/each and they shipped them together so the shipping was only about $20. These are a little cheaper than the Firestone tires. I haven't run them yet....hopefully this Friday night.
Since I bought them, I heard some people are using VW tires. I don't know the price of those. The Excelsior tires from Coker Tire Company were the cheapest I could find shipped.
