Thoughts on this Dale Earnhardt Sr. signed tire?

It is authentic.  and it is a BEAUTIFUL signature.

The numbers should be batch # that Goodyear uses ( they have changed things over the years )

The RR is Right Rear &   #3 is the set #

There is usually a signifier for the race it was used at. However, this could be a test tire.

Dale sold these tires at his shops when he was alive for $150 ( as many as you wanted ).  I have seen them sell for as much as $2000 after his death.

Today's tires have a lot more writing and codes on them.

Great. Thanks for your time and expertise.

I guess it's off to eBay unless someone here wants it or knows of a better venue to sell it.

Why don't you PM the price you are asking.  I know a LOT of people in NASCAR that may be in the market for one of these now.
