we needed redlines for a '67 tri power vette a few months ago. called coker and the only ones they had were already two years old and the price was still up there. we wound up getting a set of diamondbacks. they made a set of radials into redlines. price was better and the tires were new not two years old. this was for a car that gets driven so it did not need bias ply originals so we went with radials.

If you are going to drive the car, there is also the BF Good's "Silvertown" radials that have the tread/ride of a TA and the retro red stripe for comparison to the Diamondback's mentioned by compedgemarine

I want the radial tire, I was looking for the correct tread and sidewall markings, I'll check the other brands

thanks

I am thinking they were the MX but I would have to go back and look at what we ordered. there is nothing wrong with the coker tire that I know of just that we could not get any current ones and we did not want to pay that much for a tire that was already 2 years old. also if you plan on driving this car do yourself a favor and get a composite rear spring. ride so much better and handle better.
