 yeh they are the ones with the grey strip running down the center of the tyre , proper 80's tyre , supposedly the grey strip was a harder compound to make thetyres last longer

well i couldn't find any green freestyle one's and saw these and no one else bid (cos they forgot :LolLolLolLol:) and did wonder if they would suit what i have in mind - will have to see when it's all together and if i haven't got the right tyres in mind by then  ;)

there ok in the dry on concrete surface,  leathal if its even looking like its going to be damp though, dont think there much use on wood either?  

 kids round our way spend months getting their tires to look like that,  there's loads of em knocking about ,you can useually get em for nothing,   just got to get em from round the bottom of the lamp posts first :LolLolLolLol:
