Why would anyone want a slick tire on a 29 Chevy? It is not period correct. Very early horseless carriages had smooth tires. BTW, the word you're looking for is tread

So the tyre on the car in the picture is not period correct? What kind of tyre is that then?

[Looking for a fine threaded 475x20" tyre with minimal markings?]

I have just bought a 29 Chevy and am looking to replace its worn out tires. Wherever I look, be it Lucas or Coker tires, I can only find whitewalls or very heavily threaded tires that have a lot of ugly brand markings on them at this size. I am looking for something that is clean, near slicks with minimal markings, something like the tires on the car below which is similar to the one I bought. Note the tires in the picture have no whitewall, minimal straight aligned thread that does not go over the edge of the tyre.

 

At the bottom of the post is a Firestone one that I do not want to buy as it has aggressive thread that goes over the edge of the tyre. 

 

On this car on the other hand, is an example of what I am looking for. Perfectly neat with minimal / straight thread and no whitewalls. But I cant see they have any brand on them? Anyone know where I can buy a tyre that looks like this at 475x20? Basically what I want is a clean slick tyre that as much as possible looks like the inflatable inner tube and has minimal thread, markings and no whitewalls.

 

 

As a further example, on the link below and the picture of the Firestone one is the kind of tyre I do NOT want, it has overly excessive thread that goes along the edge of the tire, making it look like a bicycle tyre: https://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/475-500x20-lucas.html
