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)   |

Roger's son told me they lost half of their staff and are looking for people. Specifically, they desperately need another tire tech. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) |

Hate to hear this, and will keep in mind. Did they lose staff to Covid? Lack of business? Or? I'd love to buy another set of Avons from them, but need to sort out where I am going with rear tire size before they time out. |

One guy died and they had to let another go. They only had one kid working the shop and told me they have several weeks lead-time to do alignments. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |
