? about making my own WWW

hey guys i am going to make my own with my grinder does any one happen to know a good tire to use i know it needs to have raised white lettering or ring but was woundering if any brand has a thicker wall then other ones

I don't know about any brand being better then another but I found it easier to use a skinny white then a raised white letter tire. If you hunt you might find a few posts on here about others that have done it. Make sure and get a tire to practice on. Good luck grinding.

 

You're going to make your own World Wide Web with a grinder? Man, I really don't understand these computer things.

 

thanks man far the advice

 

Dude, watch this video made by a Hamber. It is the best place to learn. http://youtube.com/watch?v=xkcm3rh60p0

 

General XP2000GTs seem to be the best for me so far.

 

If you are going to buy tires to grind, why don't you just by the tires that you need?

 

cause i dont want to pay 2 benjamins for one tire when i can get all 4 for that price or less and a little swet

 

Salvage yard tires!! $5 each!!!

 

Less see here....here are some of mine with the grinders..

General XP2000GT Raised white letter run flats, BUT there are 2 types...1 has the tread on the side (wierd design) other doesnt. You want the one with the tread on the side. You will know it when you see it, its not smooth. Look close. These come out awesome.





Hard to see, but the 55 Olds has em. 61 Ford has Diamondbacks.



Pep Boys Cornell 14s...I think brand new they are under 200 a set.

 

Oh and the front one is, rear isnt. I believe this was a Firestone F440 or something. Came up nice.

 

You can get Coker 78 series for under $100, and they won't be radials.

 

thanks man i like the rear size on the truck did you say it was a firestone was it raised letters or a white ring

 

i've buffed many a whitewall through out the years, and my experience is that raised white letter tires have more white on the sidewall. better for making wider whites. depending on the size you gonna use, i'd find one with the raised letters

 

Pan dragger, yep...same here. Ever do a set of BFG? Cliffy on here did one, looked rad.

51, the one you picked was actually a bs set of vulcanized radials...Dayton or some shit I think. 2nd set I had, peeled off the tire a bit...swap meet tires really.
