Firestone is one of America’s oldest tyre manufacturers, producing tyres for the pioneers of US car design. From the earliest smooth pneumatic tyres, through the development of tread patterns and new construction methods, Firestone has grown into a company producing a huge variety of tyres. Its involvement in motorsport is legendary, with 60 wins of the Indianapolis 500 to its name. It also still produces many of its most iconic tyres from many eras of motoring.

Firestone’s Deluxe Champion tyre designs are from the glory-days of American motoring style. From the 1950s to the 70s styling was the cornerstone of US car design, and the tyre industry responded with more extravagant patterns and sidewalls. These tyres are made in original moulds, and have a variety of tread and shoulder designs, all to suit the cars they are fitted to, and they are available as either blackwall or whitewalls. These whitewalls have varying thicknesses depending on the tyre size.

This 550/600-19 Firestone Deluxe Champion blackwall crossply tyre has a traditional Firestone notched rib tread pattern and a squared-off block upper sidewall edge. It is a suitable fitment for Rolls Royce 20/25 and 25/30 models. It also fits: Alvis Speed 20, Crested Eagle and 3.5 Litre; Invicta 4.5 Litre; Lagonda 3 Litre and 4.5 Litre; Talbot 105 and 110; Armstong Siddeley 17 and 20; Austin 16 and 18; Daimler 20hp; Hillman 14, 16, 20 and Wizard and any others.
