Hi, new to the forum, straight in with a question for you all - Does anyone know if this style MH Racemaster tyres are still available or any Racemaster's with the rwl ? Thanks.

You can still get the correct 26x6-15 size but the sidewall design is slightly different now. My vintage gasser retains the original style slicks like what's seen on the Inch Pincher above...

Welcome to the forum. As stated above M&H still makes tires but with different sidewall detail. The photo in the link doesn't show the exact tire (the image shows a low-profile slick) but the detail is about the same. With few exceptions the lettering was painted on and you can usually do a better job by stripping the paint and reapplying it carefully.

The more critical difference is the shoulder detail. The original Marvin & Harry tires had a really sharp shoulder. The current-production slicks have a more contemporary soft shoulder. Apparently M&H still has the molds because it busted out a run of these. They're the wrong size for us but the tires show the older construction.
