Hey Guys Has any one bought tires from Kelsey tire I am looking at a set of 215/75/15s Goodyear. I like the way they look with the name embossed in the white walls. Wanted to see if any one knows how they are with service and such.
Sorry Tobey, no idea. I just put a set of 215/75/15 Diamondbacks on the '53 a couple weeks ago from Norm's Tire in Little Canada, MN. 2&5/8" whitewalls I believe. I've heard the cokers are prone to getting hot and throwing tread(which I was originally going to go with) and after talking to a bunch old timers, they swear by these Diamondbacks, so that's what we went with. You can check out pics of them in my profile if you like.
I've not heard of Kelsey Tire, they may be a local distributor but not in SE Michigan. We have the box stores - Belle and Discount, and a few smaller distributors - Spartan and HiWay Tire.
53 Crestline: about the Cokers, I've heard/read that they don't stand behind them if there is a problem. Too bad, cuz they used to have a good name
