This set of original white wall Goodyear Power Cushion tires are in excellent condition, one NOS and the other three showing very minimal wear to the outside treads. They are mounted on like new Dunlop chrome wire wheels from the Motor Wheel Service in England. The model is the XW5726 wheel, the current successor to the XA464 chrome wire wheels that originally came on 289 Cobras.
These are the ultimate tires for Concours judging. I assembled this set over years of looking and won the Best of Class (Cobra) at the 2015 French Lick Concours where Shelby was the featured mark, beating a Platinum SAAC 289 Cobra by 1/2 a point, likely due to this set of wheels and tires.
They are not suitable for regular driving, being 58 years old and due to being bias ply tires to boot!
I no longer Concours my car, preferring to drive it regularly.
This size Power Cushion tire is not reproduced. $3500 OBO
