Hope this helps,

Even though those tyres look to be in good shape, they may have been in storage for 50 years . I would not use them myself unless I could verify that they are of recent manufacture . Those Firestones may have canvas/cotton layers in them, the cotton tends to rot over time. A sudden blow out could have nasty results .

I did by some new MRF 900-13's and also a few new OLYMPICS that were advertised in the Weekly Times by a agricultural tyre dealer
