    Fresh from the Rubber Cave!

    This tire has yet to be finished buffed on sidewalls "See Green Arrows"

    and thank you for all the comments "keep them coming" LIKE I HAVE A CHOICE:D

    This is only a pratice in artistic license, If it can be done in white than it can be done in red. And yes I am thinking "RED" Cheater Slicks

    More pic's to come...............

    Thanks for watching!

    Why don't you get started making a set of Cheater Slicks that are exactly like the old 60's recaps that I am running now. Recapped on Bias Ply tires with Tri Whitewall and notice the egg shape around the tires side wall. I could do with out the general lettering though.

    Nice!! I guess you the guy that can make these for me. Is that on a Radial or Bias? What about those Egg Shape side wall. It's pretty important that these tires remain on this car because that's what the late Sean Vesley built them with. I should PM you soon.

    Yes I can duplicate the tire but not with that "Pie Crust" . The "Egg" shape is quite unusual, but while talking with Ron Hurst he discussed how his molds were modified from original to have square "Pie" relief's.

    Yes that tire is on a radial casing.

    Psst, tire's don't "make" dust......the white (or grey like on scissorlifts) are called non-marking tires....for use in areas where black marks are frowned upon on the floor.:D

    I figured it was a test to see what's possible. It's nice to know when someone does get an idea, there's a place like your that might be able to make it happen.

    Thanks

    Poor boy Jays tires kick ass Cody....

    Those "white boys" look Ghostly....

    Sometimes... when Im looking at old pics...I think the guys with those skinny whites look like ghosts...

    Ghost can do anything....I think they would drive very good.

    I think the point here is....dont sit on your ass, get up and try some new shit....

    I got another order ready...just gotta come up with a little xtra cake...

    Ill be in touch....

    I think on the right car/truck they will be awesome.

    Hard to tell from the pics, do they have a black sidewall?

    Cool project.

    Those are nice!
    I'm still trying to find the mate to the 15x7 chrome reverse I have to mount up the pair of Cheaters I bought from you the other week.
    I can't wait to see how they'll look on my truck.
    Cool idea on the new tires.

    very unique, any way to clean them?
    keep them white?
    I know, new idea, who knows, haven't figured it out yet
    is this the first step in color matching the tire to the car?

    Dosn't Carbon black aid in the traction of rubber to road? And if so wouldnt a non-black tread tend to slide? I might be talking out my ass here, but I do see how they would only be good for show, as dirt , rocks, tar, and other road debris would show up twenty feet out of the drive way.
