14" whitewall tires

[polara66hardtop]

I would do the same,1) attach an air chuck,2)wrap a chain around the wheel,3) and turn on the air from the compressor, as far away from the wheel as possible. 4) optional--run! One time the lock ring popped, and went flying! HA HA

One of our tire men at work back in the early 70's bought the farm.
No cages back then.

Very little acetelene for those of you that are going to run out to your garage and try it!

I may have used too much.

Uniroyal tiger paws were never a good tire.

The Hankook tires are probably Ok on a late model foreign "sporty" type car but just don't have the "look" for old Detroit iron. Theres something wrong about Jap/chinese tires on American cars that came with Goodyear/Firestone/BFgoodrich tires.
