    ID these tires for me?

    Hope the owner doesn't mind that I use this pic but by no means is this bike mine. I just like the tires and wonder if anyone can ID them. The guy who built the bike doesn't remember what they were. Thanks in advance for ANY help.

    Goodyear. They haven't made road going bike tires for years so forget it.

        Didn't they call those the IIRC? You can sometimes find manufacturers making replica tires, like Chen Shin (sp?) made a copy of the Metzler ME33s, one of my favorite tires.

          I think they're just ancient tires, but they might be flat track (dirt track) tires. You can probably get them, but only in a few sizes, they're expensive as hell, and they're probably not DOT-approved (street-legal).
