The last time I had my '69 judged , at the Novi Regional, I received a 3 point deduction (10% standard deduction?) for Firestone "Sup-R-Belt) F70-15 redlines. The comment was "S/B 9 ribs". At Carlisle I found a set of 4 Uniroyal tires that would be correct for my car. The tread is almost 100% and the black on the sidewall is perfect. The only downside is the white stripe area which shows some cracking due to age and some fading of the white (these tires will NEVER be driven on. They are just for judging at the National next summer). Does anyone know of a good way to repair the imperfections in the stripe and recommend a tire paint to freshen the white? I'm guessing that the way they are I would probably receive a point deduction per tire for condition which would yield a bigger deduction than if I left the Sup-R-Belts on. A real smart move right? Well, what's done is done. As always, thanks for your help.
