Coker Classic Star Series Tires
Best-in-Class Traction
These
tires feature Grade-A traction and temperature ratings, meaning you can
expect excellent handling and traction on wet and dry roads. We
engineered the Coker Classic Star Series to outperform all other
whitewall tires, and it features a 480 AA UTQG rating for long-lasting
tread life and unbeatable traction. This makes your classic car safer to
drive in all weather conditions and improves your driving experience.
Reinforced Sidewall
The
Coker Classic Star Series is engineered with a reinforced sidewall to
better support the weight of classic cars. This reinforcement gives the
tire Extra Load (XL) rating, meaning added safety and a long-lasting
sidewall that won't break down over time. You can find the load rating
for this tire in the specifications column.
Genuine Wide Whitewall Tire
This
product features a genuine wide whitewall sidewall style. This means
that the bright white rubber is added directly to the tire sidewall
during initial construction of the carcass, resulting in a truly
integrated, high-quality product after vulcanization. Wide whitewall
tires were a very popular choice from the 1930's through the end of the
1950's, and were eventually phased out of mainstream production by 1962.
Originally, wide whitewall tires featured a bias ply construction, but
now Coker Tire offers them in original style bias ply and modern radial
construction.
Speed Rating T
T Speed Rated: Up to 118 mph (190 km/h). Often required OE for higher performance trim level classic automobiles.
