Thanks for posting the comparisons AC. From the data the dbtires are more square due to the smaller section width

Goodyear CAN'T be making the same compound as the past. My first set from 2009 were in good shape when I sold them on a set a wheels 3 or 4 years later.
My new BBs are less than a year old and not looking so hot. They aged much, much faster

I ran "BB" for a few years, no issues and always provided great traction however do flat spot. That goes away in a few miles.... 
Running Power Cushion and G7 now, very happy with them as well.
BFG are dangerous and not made for small cars with power.... My opinion

A yup there. They will start rotting before your eyes. Except for Evan's.

I'll post pics later.
Don't laugh. Trump is gaining traction cause he says it like it is and he is 100% right on most issues especially the main ones. One of the few unafraid still left.
Btw has everyone taken down their Confereate flags and thrown out their General Lee models? More political left wing correctness dictating our lives. Coming next suits against your church for refusing to perform a gay marriage.
What's funny is failing to vote for a Cruz or Trump.

I love the look of the billboard lettering, but those rubberized canvas bladders wouldn't last a week on the roads down here. Many scoff at the idea of bonding the lettering to a more practical set of tires but they're just replica billboards on replica Cobras - everything else is fake, so why not the tires too?

Most dimocrats are probably praying for the combover to get the nomination. That would make the shrunken redneck base happy, but it would also guarantee another defeat for the re pubes. I even heard the other day that 'bamah is going to publicly endorse the donald as his pick for the candidacy... smart move sez I. 
PS - No need to fret buddy, and get all worked up and sue if the church won't perform your marriage ceremony. I'm sure you can have just as nice a wedding in a park or something with a sympathetic reverend doing the honours...

Now, you have me thinking about who's crazier. Trump or the guy running on 8-year old BB's and thinking churches will be sued.

Why is Trump "crazy"? Please enlighten us. Be Specific.
My BBs are still good. When I detect cracks they will be replaced.
An Oregon bakery was just fined $135k because they would not bake a wedding cake for a gay couple based on their religious beliefs. You can stop laughing now and eat some humble pie.

No politics. But you should review his historical record. All there for everyone to see. But you can vote for him. You'll be one of the few.
Cracks? That's what it would take? Aging may not exhibit any external indications and even an inspection by a tire expert may not reveal the extent of any deterioration. But hey, roll the dice with your $240K Shelby Cobra, yourself and any passengers. No skin off my back.
When did a bakery become a church? You said churches would be sued next. So, the progression is from an Oregon bakery to churches? And seriously, one bakery. BFD. Talk about paranoia.
Better watch out, Obama is coming for your guns. You know the Obama who was born in Nigeria, not Hawaii.

Hey, give your vote to whoever you want, that's one of the best things about America. But be aware you are being played. Trump has given quite a bit of money to the Clintons over the years, and was registered as a Dem for much of his life, don't know when he switched. This run strikes me as Donald trying to keep his name in the news, not a serious run for the presidency. And, oh yes, the facts sometimes get in the way of his red-meat statements.

Maybe Evan's BB's have an awesome comb-over of tread?

If you want Trump running the country, then you have decided you want a clown in the white house.

There's always room for one more in the little clown car we call Washington DC.
That being said, I let this go on a little cuz 1) you folks were adept at adding at least a reference to billboards somewhere in most of the posts, and 2) I don't see Trump as any more a real politician than Evan's car is a real Cobra (  ), but lets bring the political commentary to a close...pretty please.
That being said, I agree...Trump's a phuking clown.
I hereby give myself a warning about straying into politics.

Ah, see you have it reversed. Typical defense bar. The reality is its the politicians who are the fakes, phonies and frauds. They are responsible for the problems we have today. Every bit of it. They are repicating true representatives of the people since they care not a wit about what we want or us but only their own asses.
Trump is certainly not a politician. Thank God for that. He is the REAL deal (just like my Shelby). He says it like it is and while I don't agree with him on every issue he is right on on most.
If Trump is a "clown" what does that make Hillary, Bernie or Biden?  Voting one of those boobs and in Hillary's case a crook into the White House after Obama is like the Titanic hitting the ice berg, and then backing up and hitting it again.

Don't be too concerned. Getting old is a highly overrated concept anyway.
