maybe Grady Burch will sell you a pair. I think he has the market cornered on them and the Blue Streaks! Nice tires but don't remember seeing many Chevies in the old day running the Stones for Stock/SuperStock.

Sam, thanks for the input as always but I sort of don't care what was normal back in the day... I just love the look of those tires like nothing else!

Once I land a pair I bet you'll agree with me... See you at the solid lifter showroom

Thats what I like about you young guys in this hobby....do it your way!! Had a mint pair on my Z a few years back. I liked them also. Mounted them on a pair of 15X6 chrome reverse that Stockton Wheel made for me. Donny White may know where there is a pair.

Hey,Sammy what do think the SS on my windshield stood for.
My car was AHRA pro stock before Gibb owned it. He changed it to Super Stock car.

SS to me means SuperSport.
