Re: In Need of Tires
I think they're long gone. I think Avon makes a 19" road race tire. I ended up going to the 22" M/T on the Turismo. Car doesn't have near enough gear in it for that.

Re: In Need of Tires
Believe it or not I think I have a friend who bought a brand new set of the 8"? Years ago and has stored them out of the sun. I bet they are around 10 years old but never mounted. If you are interested let me know and I'll ask him if he wants to sell

Re: In Need of Tires
Had many sets of the 20x8x14 from the Cadillac days and even ran them on the SRT Neon, but they are long gone. I have one set still mounted but are hard as a rock and are falling apart. I would give them to you but I wouldn't want to be responsible for a horrible 75 mph top end crash when the came apart on you! Jim
 P.S. Billy is correct about American Racer tires. Harry Morgan runs them. They make a 20X8X13 that are great drag tires.Listed under Sports Car/ Auto Cross tires. http://www.americanraceronline.com/ .

Re: In Need of Tires
AVON makes a bias ply road race slick that is 20" in 14. they also make a 19.5 in 13.
http://www.avonmotorsport.com/motors...rossply-slicks I have a source for 13" takeoffs. check your local scca formula ford racers, ask for a set that aren't corded. should last all season with your escort. nice work in columbus....

Re: In Need of Tires
Steve. I contacted my friend. I was wrong. They are 8"X 22 X 15. Sorry for the confusion. He will sell them if someone wants them to
