They weren't rounded on the sides. Glad I bought some scooter tires. Even with those on it, it steers like a tank. The last 2 owners couldn't get the motor to fire. Turns out the cam for the points was off of a 1959 model, a 12 volt system, not 6. Took a bit to figure that one out. My buddy just got a late 60s T100 for a winter project.
