Guest Brando & Joanne Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 We have a 1904 Oldsmobile Curved Dash replica built in 1958. It was the car displayed in Epcot’s Transportation exhibit in the World of Motion. We need to buy a tire for it and it is quite a challenge to find a replacement. The tires are Goodyear Nylon Studded Thread 26x2.125 Can you possibly suggest a supplier of this tire?<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p>Thank you!<o:p></o:p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFranklin Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Have you tried Goodyear? maybe also try Coker tire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Schramm Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 You only need to put the request out once, not three times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trimacar Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 That's a bicycle tire size, by the way, go to your local bicycle shop and they can probably fix you up, although it might not be the precise Goodyear tire you mention............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Brando & Joanne Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 I am afraid the bycycle shops do not have the same size in any make. Goodyear does not anymore, nor does Coker, Lucas, Universal, Diamond Back, Tire Rack. Sorry Larry, but I put my request in 3 different forums (technical, oldsmobile and general). Everyone does not see every forum, so I guess you are a member of all 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unimogjohn Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 I just Googled your tire size and there are at least four different brands for that size of bicycle tire, to include white walls. Are yours something special? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Schramm Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 (edited) It would help if you mightg put a picture of the tire, size on sidewall picture and the size put on the side of the tire. Would be more helpful so we would know what you are looking for. Edited May 2, 2012 by Larry Schramm (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFranklin Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Here is one with the Goodyear tread design, so that's where that design went!Cheng Shin C241 26 Inch Tire 26x2.125 57-559) at BikeTiresDirect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MichelleJohnson Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Yeah, even i would suggest to post the pics of the old tyres and the actual size of it. So that it'll be easy for us to help you out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
