  Thanks Ken 39, Rumor going around Coker is sending out some bad tires ??? Have had good luck with Universal some years ago but now owned by Coker am hesitant to buy again from them and need full set of 4 this time. Seeing owned by Coker,has quality slipped since take over Need 600X 16 bias w/w firestones. Thanks for the reply ken ct.

  Ken CT
I bought a set of Lester 600-16 bias ply tires from Universal Tire about two years ago. Lester tires are made in Pennsylvania, not by Coker.

  Thanks Larry for the tip. Do you know when Coker bought Universal. Hopefully he still has non Coker made tires. ken ct.
