Greetings...
Hey guys, do you know which tires did Kitt use?
I saw they are GoodYear, or something like that, but do you know the model?

I thought at times he had BF Goodrich on too. For the Goodyears I though he had Eagle GT's...for the BF's I think it was GT Radial or something. Been so long I can't remember!

well stock 82 trans ams came with BF Goodwrench Radial T/A tires not sure of the size i think they were 205/65/15s i knew a guy who had a 82 Recaro T/A and he told me that even though the car has new tires he bough a DUPLICATE set of turbine style rims with the ORIGINAL 20 plus year old tires mounted on them. so when he takes the car to car shows he simply jacks up the car and swtiches wheels, mounts the bowling ball caps and drives the car to the show on the original rubber. the car show judges love it when a car has 20 year old or older original if possible things like tires.

Well, that's at least one correct aspect of the 1/18th Aoshima version of the models. At least they got the tires right!

Can we get the bullet-proof tires KITT has?
If you don't make a difference, you are not the Knight Rider.

lol, why? Are you thinking about having a 1 on 1 gun fighting?
Just kidding. In truth, it would be nice to have some bullet proof tires.
Anyway, they were some kind of special model (bullet proof)? Or it was just a special effect to keep a secret (who knows...
)....

Actually as i can remember, K.I.T.T could reinflate his tires like he did in Slammin Sammy's Stunt Show Spectacular when Mario tried to sabotage him. Wish my Grand Am's could do that.

I think the term, Lady V, is "Auto Inflate", as spoken by Wesley Snipes in "Demolition Man". J/k
