Kelseys is the company, Goodyear is the brand

Re: red lines '67

I guess what I'm asking, what brand can I put on my car to get only 3 points off ? Kelsey does not offer a 775x15 on there website. Coker has there own brand in a 775X15. I drive this car to numerous events and want to flight judge after driving many miles. Going to Greenville in a few weeks, just got back from Carlisle -- Want a brand that will take the miles, need your opinions.

Re: red lines '67

James, a compromise which a lot of guys do is put goodyear DOT redlines on the ground and source a Non DOT to use as the spare. Then it should be only a 2 point deduction. Also know that the spare tire does NOT have to match the road tires. So you could have redlines on the ground and a blackwall non dot in the tire tub and it's fine for judging.

Re: red lines '67

Will that Kelsey tire fit the spare tire tub?
