I'm looking for a source for 4 NEW GoodYear R250 slicks with the following specs:
23.0 x 9.0 x 15 R250 compound 7" rim 10.4" section width 9.3" tread width According to the GoodYear spec sheet, the Matl No is: 807-409-104 And the R250 specific number is: 2069 192563 The only distributor listed on GoodYears website is "Carroll Shelby Enterprises" in Las Vegas but their website does not list the tires above. These tires are somewhat special in that they fit on a 7" rim but have a 10" contact patch and a rock hard sidewall that bulges out 1.5" on each side. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

Those were great tires. I believe that GY stopped making them several years ago and sold the molds to Hoosier. I suggest calling Roger. He'll know. Jon
