Discount Tire just lost my business
I salvaged a set of 17 yr old Coopers from the pile of parts the guy had when I bought my fish from his widow. Bought a set of 15" x 8" wheel vintiques and just wanted to see how well the 255's (maybe they were 265's but doesn't matter) would fill my wheel well. It was hell getting the regular tire shop to mount them but they did. They lived through several big burnouts before the 275 DR's showed up.
The guy who works at the other tire shop I now use kept the Copper takeoffs for himself. LOL, I had to bleach out the mold from the inside from where they were sitting out in the weather for years unmounted.
I have a friend at the other tire shop who will mount anything for me. One set is on a pair of old wheels and they had to basically glue the bead in to hold air. Using them to oll the fish while it gets bodywork.
