Coker Classic Star Series Whitewall Tires
Coker Classic Star Series Whitewall tires are modern radials with best-in-class speed, load and traction ratings. They feature stylish whitewalls, which are built into the tires from Day One—delivering the perfect look for your classic car. The whitewalls fit many American and European classic cars from the 1960 and earlier. Star Series tire ratings help them to provide excellent treadwear, traction, and temperature control. Another best-in-class rating is the T speed rating (118 mph), as well as XL load rating, thanks to a reinforced sidewall. The low-noise tread looks and performs nicely; and these tires are DOT approved and E-marked for the European market. You won't find a better whitewall radial tire on the market! * Best-in-class traction: Star Series tires feature Grade-A traction and temperature ratings, meaning you can expect excellent handling and traction on wet and dry roads. They're engineered to outperform all other whitewall tires, and feature 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. * Star Series tires are 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. * Star Series tires feature 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 1930s through the end of the 1950s, 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. * T Speed rated: Up to 118 mph (190 km/h). Often required OE for higher performance trim level classic automobiles. * Available in a wide range of sizes
