Huffy Corvair tires
Hi.. Sorry I can't post pictures yet...
I have a Huffy Corvair, Mens (boys) bike that I can NOT read the tire size. They are badly rotted. (And made in Taiwan to boot...) white walls....I'd like to use as close to originals as I can get, if possible..
Thanks
Kerry

The tires are almost certainly 26" x 1.75" (that's the orginal size the Huffy Corwair, anyway). It's likely that any cruiser-style tires (as opposed to mountain bike tires) you find will be from Taiwan or China. Bike tires haven't been manufactured in the U.S. for quite a while.
Just did a search and discoverd that the Huffy Corvair is somewhat collectible, depending on the condition and originality of the bike. Some good forum threads on Huffy Corvairs can be found at thecabe.com.
