Who is running Coker Classic WWW Radials? Opinions please.

I had Cokers on my 55, installed by previous owner in 2002.
In 2011 with about 13000 miles one tire had a sidewall blow out.
Tire shop said it was tire failure, not road damage.
All the white had hairline cracks and were hard to keep white.
After installing new tires I noticed how rough and how bad the Cokers handled.
I'll go with Diamondback next set.

 

I havent run them yet but I just bought four 6.00-16 Coker cl***ic, black walls, bias ply through that auction site on summits online store, I was going to buy firestones direct from Coker but I saved a few hundred going through summit and getting the cl***ics. They also shipped free, Coker wants like another 120 to ship their tires. I think firestones look better but for the money saved I doubt anyone else would know the difference. As far as people talking about white walls turning yellow, thats what they do, some bleach white ww cleaner cures that problem in 5 minutes.

 

I had lots of trouble with my Cokers, switched to Diamond Back and put 70,000 mile on my first set.

 

I get an Alliance discount through Coker, but dont want to buy just because they are cheaper. I want to buy what will last and looks good. Great to hear reviews from guys who run both, and what their experiences are, Thanks

 

I had Diamndbacks on a 1963 Bentley S3. The car weighed about 5000 pounds and the ride was great! White walls were nice and bright. I have the old Coker Cl***ics on my '40 and they are a little bit yellowish.

 

Coker wide whites on henry j. got them in 2003. excelent ride very smooth, steers like power steering. amazing. JAN

 

i have the coker www on my little pickup. i have the 6.00x 16 and it handles great goes around corners excellant. i thought they would not grip as well for a skinny tire but i was way wrong. have about 1200 miles on them with no problem.

 

Sorry to go off topic but OMG this car is gorgeous!

 

i have coker,s on both my chevy and my ford when i frist put the coker,s on my 50 chevy i had a steel belt shift in one i called them they asked for the number on the tire i read it back and they said that it was a bad run i gave all 5 tires back and they haven,t griven me any problems since and on my ford i had a tire that blew out sent it back got a new one they have been on both cars over 12 yrs and i would get them again but i hear good things about diamondbacks but i never had them

 

Got Diamondbacks on 34 ford roadster and have driven coast to coast with them and no problems. Putting them on my wife's 32 ford coupe for the trip to LARS again this june for father's day . She's driving hers and I'm driving mine again to Calif.

 

Cokers on mine now...Diamondbacks next will be the next set.

 

I like the diamond backs but keeping the air is very importent ! I got mine new but they sat for 5 years on the floor in my shop' the dealer gave me no information on them. so When i put them on i ran 32 lbs like most other tires. well the white wall split. I called and i told them what happen he said they run 45 lbs tuff luck. I asked for the owner and what a hell of a nice guy four new tires I paid shipping and had no other issue. great Biz. I know guys running coker and as said they are good tires buy yellow fast. both good companys

 

One set of Coker Cl***ic WWW Radials would balance, no issue with the other set. Also have a set of Diamond Back and they are good.

 

I have Cokers that have a crack all the way around just outside the white wall. Coker said thay would replace them.

 

I've got a bunch of miles on mine that are on the roadster and they have stayed white and in great shape. Good ride. Good service from Coker, with fast shipping when I ordered them.

Had good luck with Diamondback, too, but I took advantage of that Coker Alliance Discount when I was looking.
