    I know about diamond back and coker, are there any other options for wide whitewall tires? Original/current size is 700X16

    Coker and Diamond Back are pretty much it as far as I know. On my 31"A" Hiboy I had Coker bias and now Diamond Back radials. I much prefer the Diamond Backs as far as driving, and looks are"in the eye of the beholder".

    Just got some bias ply wide whites from coker. They have the look i was after. Alliance discount was a big help too.

    Stay away from Coker, I have B.F. Goodrich, wide white, radials and they are great. With about 20K miles on them and I can't see any wear on them. Coker's were trash at 12K.

    Aren't those from Coker? If so, the only thing from BFG is the old mold and a license fee paid by Coker so they can keep the name on the tire they have made by the lowest bidder on a mold they bought from BFG.
    On edit: I was referring to post #5. Post #6 was posted while I was typing mine:eek:
