    Just wondering what brand you all are using for your www tires.

    I looked at Coker and they are over $150 a pop. [​IMG]

    Is there anyone else making them for a little less $$$, or are they the only game in town?

    Pretty much.
    Diamondbacks are radials but they ain't cheap either.

    and the radials are $150. but i figure you get what you pay for. oh yea i just remembered. i lied. i had one slip a belt and they replaced it for free. but still it's hard to swallow $600 for a set of tires.

    I do not know why Cokers are being given a bad rap.
    I have used two sets, the first set were bias, shich Reverendz now has.
    the second set were radials, ride better, drive better than bias, and am very well pleased with them. I do not have them on a car now due to a personality change on the car.
    I have kept them and am considering their use on the 47, or may put them back on the 62 and use the American's on the 47.
    By the way, they have about 25,000 miles on them.
    Attached is a photo showing the Coker radials on the car.
