Darryl:

Yes they are, or were at least last year, available from a coach owner
in Colorado, whose name I don't recall. I talked to him and took
pictures of his 78 Royale (with a set of cattle horns mounted on the
front end) at the Boerne TX GMCMI Rally last year. He also sells an
alternative wheel, Armstrong I believe?. Perhaps someone else knows his
name?

I recall him telling me that the tires he sells are black wall on the
outside and he has someone with a cutter remove the black wall material
to exe the whitewall.

Does anyone know if the whitewall tires for GMC coaches are being made
by anyone? I saw a coach at Hershey with them two years ago, but
believe it or not they looked like they might be original, or at least
very old. I see them in the original brochures and on the Cinnabar
coach on the cover of the service bulletins.

In case you haven't learned of the individuals name, I just found out
that it is Ed Laird 303-795-8900.
