Universal Goodyear F70-15 repo
 

OK since we are talking Tires
Looking for opinions on the Goodyear repo F70-15
Anybody using these?
Really would like to buy a set soon
Joe

Thinking these are sold under the “Universal” Tire company
only.
Thanks SYC!!

What car are you using them on, for show or driving

F70-15 appears to be a Corvette tire, maybe others. You can get those through Rusty Small (Small hurst). He is direct with Kelsey Tire Company...Joe

I bought a set from Rusty last year

Thanks guys
I just want to go with a more original look.
I was at Carlisle last week and talked to the people at Coker
and Universal.
I really like the Firestone Radial but don’t think I like the looks of them
On a 69 Camaro, just not the right Look to me.
This will be just a local driver to go to breakfast or maybe a local drive-in.
Might of found a set I’m going to look at today.
Thanks again,Joe

Joe,

I hope it works out for you, let us know how the F70/15 Polyglass tires drive?

I have a set of the Goodyear Speedway E70/15 repos (which are not belted like the polyglas ) and they are too scary to drive on, I took them off as they dart around and follow any ruts on road. I have 2 sets of YH dated wheels, all straightened and restored, the E70/15 are balanced perfect but brutal driving on. I took them off and put my 25 yr old Eagle GT radials back on, they are a little out of round but drive OK.

Joe,

What you may give up in a bit of authenticity (the look) is more than worth the way they drive. I have a set of the Coker Firestone radials on my 67 Corvette and love them!

FWIW

If anyone swaps their redline bias plys for radials let me know, I'd love to buy your old set.
