The tires on the car are vintage dirt-trackers, but Tony wanted some real Indy tires of the time. He located a slightly used set, and if you look closely, you can read Dayton Steel in yellow chalk on the tread. Dayton Steel Foundry was an Indy competitor from 1957 to 1959, so its possible that these tires raced alongside the Bob Estes Special when they were new. The original Halibrand magnesium wheels are reversible, providing slightly different offset depending on which way you mount them. View Related Article
