That sounds a little unbelievable to me but who knows in this day and age. I did a search on Google and nothing came up except this years race.

I saw the previous thread. Not sure if that is true or not.
Tire Rack has them in both of the OEM sizes that were offered. They are $70-$80 each. I liked them so much on my Vette that I bought another set for my Camaro. I am very satisfied with the performance.
How can you go wrong at that price either?

I understood that the tires will be available just the INDY 500 name is going due to licensing costs.

I run the 255x60s on my 72 and on the driver's side there are two bolts in the wheel well at the rear. You can tell the tire rubs on one of the bolt heads because it is always shiney.
Passenger side does not rub at all because there are no bolts in that same spot.
