Speedway sells them, but blackwall only. $99.95 each. I would like a set also,but that's kinda steep, for my budget. that's my $oo.o2. glenn

Radir/M/T's are nice but expensive and I don't think they will fit in the wheel opening of most cars.. I know they make an 8 and a 10.I'll go the $99 with hurst if they make white walls...

I thought I read some place that someone is repopin M&H racemasters, possibly availible from Coker. If that was true I wanted a set for my BS/A car, but may have to settle for the blackwalls from Hurst.

Those are the 10" wides for sure you can use an 8" on up rim

You could have a tire carver put the white rubber on it for you to have the correct width but still have your WW. I'd like a skinney red strip on mine so I may have something like that done.

I had HURST make me a pair, 28x8.5 and groove em for wet street use.
Call Hurst (Ron)(208) 536-6236. Oh yeah...... Moon and Speedway both purchase their so called nostalgia cheater slicks from Hurst. Coker carries a F-stoner cheater as well but with the 2 hun + price tag (each) Here's a pic of my hurst's 8" cheater on 8" americans
