Amazing use of Advanced Composites coupled to modern high alloy hub and rim!!
I believe these tires will be back on the market soon.

They are on the market for 40's and 50's vintage cars but are waay expensive esp for radials....like nearly $300 each.

I took that shot at a local concours. Interesting about the wood spokes with metal for the hub & rim - I guess the next technology step was steel spokes.
BTW - wood really is an amazingly evolved composite with very high performance criteria. |

Pontiac picked up that technology and modernized it for the 64 Grand Prix
It's time for a resurgence.
