They are NOS, purchased 10/02/2009, properly stored, never driven on.
No cracking, hold air and all four balanced properly.
I bought them for a Lotus 11 Kit car I am working on and ran into clearance issues.
I had mounted them last week to check for clearance. They are a loose press fit
in the rear inner fender liners / wheel houses about .1" of clearance.
I don't want to make new fender liners, nor do I want to run without fender liners.
I am looking to change to some narrow 15" street radials.
Current prices are (RK Racing):

No new Vintage Dunlops have been shipped to the USA this year so far,according
to Roger Kraus Racing. So no take offs are available. These are hand made
tires, so can't buy them at Tire Rack for a discount.
The tread compound is likely to have hardened some with time.
If you were a true V racer, might not be the best choice.
If you just want to try them or want spares or display tires for half price they
would be perfect.
Asking $160 each for 450L, $172 each for 500L.
New $318 each for 450L, $341 each for 500L.
Shipping is extra, actual cost plus insurance - no handling charges. Mail, UPS,
ect - whatever you want or is cheapest. Need about 5 working days to have them
dismounted / buy new tires / prepare for shipping.
Will consider offers, but prices are firm. Home email is
