On Training Wheels
Hey guys, my grandfather was big into the classic bicycle and scooter scene but unfortunately passed a number of years ago. I have 8 20x1.75 tires that he left behind that I know nothing about. 4 whitewall U.S. Royal Chain and 4 blackwall Uniroyal Chain tires. The whitewalls have some light cracking in places and the blackwalls have none that can be seen. I have no need for them and hope they could go to a good home, but I am curious as to their approximate age and worth. Thanks for the help.

Surprisingly the mfg produced this style of tire all the way up through the 60's I believe... same
profile as the early 20th century chain design tires they produced. If these were 20x 2.125
you would find happy homes for them here and GOOD sales$ totals..
Unfortunately the size of these being the narrower profile kills the value
considerably. Maybe start at around 60 a pair for the WW's and a bit less
for the black walls? or go a little higher and accept offers?
good luck
 
Let me just say now that this was the best beginner's experience I have ever had on an online forum and I want to thank everyone who replied! If only the guys in the automotive world were so informative and polite.
