Goodyear Eagle 'Cobra' Tyres
Im in the market for a set of Goodyear Billboard style tyres. I know where i can buy them new, but though i might as well see if anybody has a set they want to move before i buy them new. If i have no luck, i will probably bring some over from RKR in the states, so if anybody else wants a set, let me know and maybe we can get a discount on a couple of sets.
|
I would be keen to hear a price on a set of billboards in Australia.
|
There is a dealer for them in Oz. I don't know how he compares to shipping costs from US.
|
Are these only available for smaller rim sizes? What about 17"?
|
No way...it's Tires not Tyres...just kidding couldn't help myself. Good luck!
|
I'm interested in a set as well.

I have a set of Billboards that are new BUT 3 years old, they do have a set of Halibrands 6 pins with them. Was keeping them as spares for the Kirkham. PM is interested. Soulman. |

I think I can answer my own question. They only come in 15", have no speed rating and maybe therefore uninsurable, by some reports?
|
Merv, yes 15' only, Billboards are not street tyres, not street legal...but oh so very cool. I love them and have a few sets here. :)
|
I'd be keen to hear a price...
Not being dot legal is a bit of a shame. It means they're pure track or show. Pitty cos they're unrivalled for look on cobra. |
Thanks Craig. Yes they look really good, but for my next set of 17's ... not much value really. So, the jury is still out. I have had good experience with the Sumitomos for street use. Any other suggestions?
|
Merv I had the sumitomos and the rears lasted 9000 K's(funny about that). I put on some Kumho KU36's - got em from Tireack. OK on street and track. Cheers Gregg
|
Thanks Gregg. Mine are 14,000 and have embarassingly about 5000 more - maybe. They were from tire rack too. Will check out your suggestion.
|
Craig, Do you have any "worn out" Billboards?
As I wouldnt mind trying a set on my rims to be sure they will fit before spending the coin on new tyres. |
I've got a set of Billboards with about 100 miles on them for sale if anyone is interested, PM me .
