Old style Firestone’s March 06, 2021 12:39AM
Hey guys I have a question about old style Firestones I know the tread pattern is different but I run a class where you can’t face cut tires I have a nice set of tires 20.8 38 they seem to measure pretty similar to the newer tread pattern has anyone had any luck top cutting these and running them or should I try finding a set of the standard Firestone 20.8 38? 11-12k class about 900 hp thanks for any info

If you cant facecut what other choice is thier besides topcut ?

Top cut is my only option I would probably top cut any tire I had I am more wondering how these tires stand up against the others

The description of "old style firestone" is very vague.theres probably a dozen tread patterns that would fall into that description when asking on as pulling forum

They are big letter old style Firestone 20.8 38 radials there is more space between the lugs than the next newer style which I believe means there are less lugs on the tire

Open speed? You would be better off with a top-cut set of the new style Firestone Deep Treads or the BFG HT radials. The big letter old style Firestones work ok, but I’d go with the other two in a road gear or above class.
