So, do you or someone you know run Hurst Cheater slicks on your/their Rod?
I had them make me a pair, and my car is not completed yet.
The quality is very good, and the look is awesome.

I need to get some new ones here pretty quick... I haven't started looking for Hurst's contact information yet as it is burried in a pile of research for an article I did a LONG time ago. Anyone have it handy?

Mecutem,
The Speedway / Hurst tires are the same tires...I bought mine direct from Ron @ Hurst, and had him groove them so I could drive in the rain!!!

Harrell.......Your A C-dan is so rightous man, my wife has been on my ass since we visited with you in B-field to find a body and get busy.
So I guess once this Willy's is on the road, I'll be back in the shop once I find a C-dan body.

Glenn the Willys is looking great. Didja sell the A?
Now let's get this straight, the Hurst recaps are built on radial carcasses right? Wouldn't it be dangerous to run them with bias plys up front. I really dig the way they look though.
Also aren't you asking for trouble running cheaters in wet climates like Florida's?
