Wanted to let everyone know that AZ AMC Restoration and Parts is now an authorized dealer for both Kelsey Tires who owns the rights and molds to Goodyear Polyglass tires and Diamondback Tires who will make any size redline radial tire you want from a BF Goodrich Radial TA. Neither are inexpensive but at least we will be offering a discount to forum members off their list prices which cannot be found elsewhere on the internet.
I do not yet have a credit card payment system up so the only forms of payment accepted are Paypal "Personal Payments for money owed" and bank or postal money orders. For shipping, it is far more cost effective to send to a business address so if possible be sure to specificy a legitimate business shipping address in order to save roughly 30% off the cost of shipping on the tires.

Dan, I think you're first reference for the Goodyear tires is a company called Kelsey Tire in Missouri. They are the authorized supplier for Goodyear classic tires. Kelly-Springfield, now known as Kelly Tires, is still a viable tire brand and a wholly owned subsidiary of Goodyear.

Right you are. Correction made to the announcement. Thanks!
I ordered a set of very painfully expensive E60/15s today for a guy's Machine and E70/14s for the Bittersweet 70 AMX. The 14s were were roughly half the cost of the bigger tires and still very costly but not anywhere near as bad as the Machine tires. Edited by amx39068 - Apr/01/2013 at 6:33pm |

Do you mind saying how much $$ for the E60-15's? You can PM me if you wish. That's what are supposed to be original on my 73' AMX, and i'm thinking about getting a set. What i'm confused about is the literature says this (Go Pac) car has E60-15's...........which to me implies all the way around, but doesn't say if they are on the front also. ?? I was told by someone they wouldn't fit the front. True, or not? Also, in our phone conversation of late, you knew of a guy that found a substance that softens(with multiple applications) old hard vinyl. Have any info for me? Thanks.

Those tires list for $354 each! I will PM you with the discount.
69ambassador390 is the guy that used the stuff to soften the leather in the Cougar we took in trade to redo his Ambo. I will ask him today and post it back here and in the restoration section. We put the equivalent szie radial tires on the front of the 74 Jav AMX on the 15x7 ralleys and they are fine. Likwise, on Machine wheels the E60/15 fit fine on the front of a 70 AMX although with the old 4 piston calipers they may require the spacers. There are no issues with fender clearance on either with stock height springs

These are the tires we ordered for the 70 AMX only in E70/14 rather than F70 in the picture.
And these are the tires we ordered for the Machine likewise in E60 rather than F |

SmallHurst, who is a member of this forum, also sells these tires at a
discount, so I don't know where the "a discount to forum members off
their list prices which cannot be found elsewhere on the internet" came
from as he has been offering discounts for a few years. I have bought
tires from him and his prices were less than anything else I found on
the internet.

And maybe someone can please help us all understand why having mulitple options for our AMC parts and equipment needs would even remotely be considered a bad thing?
If someone wants to buy tires from us we will give them the best deal we can. If they wish to buy from Smallhurst or anyone else more power to them and I hope they get as good a deal as we offer. If not, their loss.
