Pace Car Collector Offering Original Date Coded Wheels and Tires For Sale


We’ve previously featured a collection of low mileage Corvette Pace Cars from the collection of Don Mackey and while those three Pace Cars have been sold, today he asked if we could help get the word out on his date coded tires and wheels for sale. We know from our collector friends that finding a correct set of four date-coded tires is one of the hardest OEM parts to locate, and the older the car, the harder they are to find.

If you have a similar year Corvette that requires a set of original wheels or tires for judging, or if you want to complete the authenticity of your restoration of a Corvette from these model years, these wheels/tires sets could be right for you. Contact Don Mackey in Arizona at 520-349-0940 or email [email protected] for any additional questions or photos.

As a fan of special edition Corvettes, I’ve been patiently waiting for Chevrolet to get around to offering one on their hugely successful mid-engine Corvette. Unlike the C7s which offered a limited launch edition right out of the gate, we’ve been forced to wait until the third model year to get an official special edition on the C8.
