Three days ago I had a customer bring me a set of 1984 Corvette wheels with original tires on them. April, 1984 was the date code on them. Goodyear Gatorbacks. The rubber was extremely hard and the tires were very difficult to dismount. Had some light cracking in the sidewalls but no visible cracks in the tread roots. Tires had 11,000 miles on the. He wanted the tires back to sell with the car when it goes up for sale soon.
