Re: 1966 Chevy SWB Gasser influenced truck
Hurst and Towel City slicks are recaps, Radir Slicks are new tires. A lot of local guys ran recap slicks in the 60’s. I don’t remember one ever coming apart, but several guys ended up doing a 360 through an intersection when they tried to stop on wet pavement and the rear end broke loose and came around.
I love the way they look and really wanted a pair on my truck a couple of years ago. But I couldn’t beyond the concern of wrecking the truck over an encounter with a water puddle (which we have a lot of). And if too much tread is cut into them they just don’t look right.
