Usable 2nd hand 15" NASCAR Tyres for my Penske IROC? - F-Body Road Racing and Autocross Forums

Hi Guys,

I know not really relevant to 3rd and 4th gens but I have a 1977 spaceframed Penske Camaro IROC race car at home (2nd gen shape with Banjo Matthews NASCAR style chassis Car number IROC Chassis 11). Anyhow I have had the thing for years and would really like to get around to doing a number on it especially as after it was imported into the UK it ran in a series overhere called Thunder Saloons which had an inaugeral revival meeting last weekend that went down a storm and it looks like its going to return next year for original period cars. What this means is this car will at last have a home overhere so may well be worth spending some money on her. I want to restore the car back to original and will eventually need a set or two of the tall 15" NASCAR style slicks and wanted to know if there is any source over there for buying these 2nd user after the big boys have finished with them? I know they will not be the fastest way to race this car but I am not worried about that I want it to look authentic and in period as I don't do this to win just for fun.
