A friend of mine has a model A which has old snow tires. The tires are beat and he would like new ones, his wife asked me what to get him for christmas. I'd like to find a good pair so his wife can give a present he will really like.

thanks!

If your friend has a set of 16" '35 ford rims to put them on, these two are reasonably priced. You'll need new tubes and rim liners, too. Tire ONE Tire TWO

I WONDER how Goodyear Diamond treads would perform as snow tires?

I have a set of NOS Model A Winter Tracks. They look like a cutaway section of a snow tire with a belt attached and they attach in pairs to the rear wheels. I am sure they are anything but effective but they likely were when they were made in 1929.

I have a set of never mounted brand new 18" firestone tires that would work great in the snow. I think they are Sure Grips.
