Help! Cheater Slick Needed

JPrusinows · Dec 2, 2016

Guys,

Desperately seeking one Hurst 8" Cheater slick 29" tall. Developed a bubble on one of mine and I don't want to chance driving on it (even though we usually just go to the bar and back, LOL!).

Prefer a new one or an exceptional used (I know I m asking a lot) one. Any help you can give is greatly appreciated. Just want to keep the car the way I set it up and could kick myself for not throwing an extra set up in the attic.

Still sick to my stomach and I know you all understand.

Thank you so much.

Jeff

Worst case scenario: You can always get a pair of M&H or Firestone cheates.

That's a killer 62 btw...

Are you running them tubeless? If so why not put tubes in them! Just asking. Good looking ride!

Have you ever looked at Towel City for tires? They do recaps to look like pie crusts. I dont have any not that far along in the game for tires yet.

Thats cool they are back in business. I thought Hurst closed up shop when they were in Oregon. Good to know thanks

Thanks guys for all the help. I don't think Hurst is back in business. What a shame and a waste of great molds! Surely somebody could take them over and produce the tires. Liability probably put them out of business.

Still looking for a match. Towel city has a beautiful tire just doesn't match my front rollers well. I don't beat the car up so it truly is about the look.

Thanks again,

Jeff
