Blackwall Tire
Since the introduction of carbon black, most tires have featured a solid black sidewall. This classic blackwall style delivers a clean, no-nonsense appearance that remains popular among enthusiasts of classic cars, British sports cars, trucks, and hot rods. The timeless look makes it a perfect match for period-correct restorations.
Bias Ply Construction
Bias ply tire construction was widely used from the early 1900s through the 1970s on passenger cars and light trucks. The ply cords run at a 45-degree angle to the bead and overlap in a crisscross pattern, creating a strong and durable structure. While these tires provide excellent strength, they may follow road imperfections more than modern radial designs.
Firestone Tires for Collector Vehicles
The vintage Firestone tire lineup is designed for a wide range of vehicles built from the 1900s through the 1970s, including cars, trucks, and motorcycles. Popular styles such as Deluxe Champion, Non Skid, and Wide Oval are available in a variety of sizes. With options like whitewalls, redlines, and raised white letters, Firestone remains one of the most recognized brands for classic and collector vehicles.
