I've got one, but I don't have a clue what its worth. Original steel rim with original Firestone tire. :cool:

Shouldnt that rim be hung up in a museum? That tire is rare. Thought they stoped making the firestone tires that came on the gen 1s

Nope. The Firestones that came on the Lightnings were actually very good tires. Unfortunately, you can't buy the same tire anymore due to compound changes etc.... Most of the Gen I guys I have talked to loved the original Firestone tires. I think the spare is actually a 16" tire. :cool:

Dennis,
I wonder how many of these young 'uns on this board even know of the death radial 500 by Firestone? :tongue:
