I know someone that was running these tires on his '69 Riviera. They would wear funny, have bubbles in the sidewalls, etc. Hit a pothole and the tire would get egg shaped.
It was not a problem getting new ones at the Firestone store. The problem was you'd just keep getting more of the same lousy tires.
