That seems like an odd tread pattern for a Goodyear NCT, or maybe my memory is playing tricks on me. However I last remember looking at an NCT when I had my Bronze, which would be early 90s. Can't expect a tyre tread pattern to stay the same for 20 years, I suppose.

That's because they're NCT 2's the original NCT had a slightly different tread pattern. and it just so happens that I acquired some late Metro turbo wheels with a mix of NCT's and NCT2's ;) :)

After 20 years you'd be lucky to have any tread pattern! :lol:

I have a pair of Metro rear wheels with 155/70x12 tyres on them, which have to be about 23 years old, still attached to the rear subframe they arrived with.

Wouldn't dare use them......although technically, since there's about 2mm tread depth, I suppose they're still legal... :D

(not too sure about the subframe either, it's been "stored" out of doors all that time!)
