RE: [Chrysler300] White wall tires

["Rich Barber" <c300@xxxxxxx>]

Depends on the size and your choice of bias ply or radial.  Let's not start
that tirade.  Radials are preferable for wear and steering stability, bias
plies are more authentic.  The original size on our 1955 C-300 was 8.00 x 15
and these are rather rare birds.  Lucas carries a good looking 8.00 x 15
bias ply in 3" or 4" WSW and advises they are new tires and very popular
with '50's Cadillac owners, also.  Coker also sells a bias ply 8.00 x 15,
but I remain unconvinced that Coker's tire design is safe.  Their problems
with radials may be in the past, but their tires and customer service has
been reported here as spotty.

Hi all,
 
There were some posts a while back about tires being available.  I need
a set of four wide white walls.  Anyone know the price and who I
contact?
 
Thanks.
