So, we have established that it is NOT a 'Diamond Tread' (GoodYear) that you are looking for, but rather some other tread pattern, more closely akin to the later (that which is currently available) Firestone tread. The term 'Diamond Tread' through me off.

The tire he wants is a trapezoidal tread. Maybe GoodYear had a lock on the diamond tread and logo.

They are Heidenau K60 Scout tires I used them when on my trip to Alaska, Bias belted tubeless but I don't know what load range they are.

Big hammer · 11-16-2015, 01:23 PM

What about grooving standard tires or using tire chains when needed?

Beater · 11-16-2015, 01:59 PM

I have a grooveing tool and yes that's on my mind

Dollar Bill · 11-17-2015, 06:44 AM

Beater · 11-17-2015, 09:08 PM

soooo you are using them on a bike not a car?

JonC · 11-18-2015, 09:28 AM

Yes

Beater · 12-03-2015, 02:29 PM

well motor bike tires should probably stay on motorbikes.

just fyi for anyone that's interested these are goodyear and they are called a " studded suregrip" after a bit of a search I also found they are still made in south America
