Is it me, or do the new L60's seem a bit small? What size Cragar was the display? They do look great!

they do look small in the pictures but are really pretty wide. The one in the photo is on a 10&quot; rim. The Cragar display was pretty cool. The Mickey Thompson display was mostly off road and 4WD trucks. BUMMER.

ahhhhhhhh... but did anyone Notice Which L60 that is ?
.Goodyear offered it 3 ways.

3 Different Era's ...

I ain't say'n no more other than &quot;its similar to other reproduced &quot; GY's by Kelsey Tire Co.

I'll divulge what I believe they are after
the Pens beat up on the Habs in Montreal tonight....

Goodyear always made their tires small back in the day. The L60's and N50's were shorter and not as wide as their competition.

I have some N50 M/T,Pro Trac and kelly Super charger and they are within a 1/4 of each other but the GY is about 3/4 shorter and 1 inch less in width.

I measured my Original L60 x15
Good years, on the car, inflated to 28# on 8 1/2 &quot; Cragar SS 27&quot; tall x 10&quot; wide. I also have N.O.S. ones that measure the same unmounted.

I've had a lot of M/T's in the Indy Profile SS series, these tires measure
&quot;way smaller&quot; on height (diameter) &amp; width (foot print) than the Good years or Pro Tracs in the same tire sizes.
It does appear the Pro Tracs (original RWL tires) not the Newer Black walls, are a 3/16 th -1/4 &quot; larger than anything else. and have a neutral side wall bulge as the Good years have a positive bulge....&quot;looks more rounded&quot;
on the sidewall which exemexemplifies the &quot;RWL's &quot; ....

Man,,, all three of these Brands are the
Pinnacle for Looks depending on personal choice &amp; Vehicle application.
