Does anyone have any experience with the Coker radials that look like the old bias ply Firestone Wide Ovals? I'm wondering how they would stack up against a set of BFG Radial TA/s

I've installed 3 sets at my shop, all F-60-15s. Lettering on sidewalls is excellent but side by side slightly larger than bias and I mean they really need to be side by side to notice. There is the radial 'bulge' in the sidewall but not as pronounced as TAs or other radials. The shoulder is a little rounder than bias tires but most people who have seen them don't notice. Usually I need to point out that they're the radials, not the bias, or people don't realize it. Ride is as good as any radial. Traction seems comparable to a radial TA. I haven't heard any feedback about how well they wear. None needed any unusual amount of weights when balanced. I recommend them. Two of the cars we've put them on are for customers who drive their cars a lot and they are very happy with them as well.

Have them on my ‘72 442 and ‘72 Stingray. I like them a lot - can’t beat the looks and they drive very well. Replaced an old set of Radial T/As on the 442 that I put on it in 2001. I will be getting another set for my ‘72 V Code Supreme this spring to replace another old set of T/As.

Thank you all for the great feedback. I will definitely be using them on my next project car.
