Sold Pair Of Period Goodyear G3 26” White Wall Tires $575

[New Mexico Brant]

A super hard tire to find in PRE WAR original 26" PRE-NYLON EXAMPLES!!!, I spent three years putting together a NOS pair for my girl’s Huffman Super streamline. These were the back up pair, have some ride wear, sidewall crazing, and small cracks (that present when not mounted). Overall a very nice lightly used pair perfect for that special bike. One has some fine fugitive spray paint spatter at one area that could be cleaned off. $575 pair shipped. Please PM to purchase. Just selling the pair.

How do you know they are prewar? I’m asking because I have a pair of G3’s and wanted to know if there are certain marks for the prewar version? Thanks in advance

Nylon was first used for toothbrushes in 1938 with panty hose right after. Then during the WWll for parachutes. After war ended it was used commercially for many products.
Including tires
