  Where do you guys get tires for our cars? 6.00 X 16 wide whitewall
Is Coker the best place at $240 ea?

  Check out Universal Tire in Hershey PA. That’s where I got the tires for my ‘46 Super Deluxe.

  Iput modern radial blackwalls tubeless from amazon 110 bucks each 25 bucks each mounted at local small tire shop on my '37 fordor with the wide five wheels. did not balance.dont drive any faster than 45 mph on 2 lane. first time for me to see the inside of the orig artillery wheels.the looked like someone had put some sort of coating over the rivets.the guys suggested they dabbed some black sealant type adheasive on each rivet to be sure. i guess thy use it on pitted alum. wheels? anyway havnt leaked a bit of air in at least a month,and i drive the old girl every day.

  I put the Coker 6.00x16 wide whitewalls on my 1940 Tudor and they were the best price I could find if you are not concerned with originallity. I got mine through Summit racing because the shipping was cheaper. I have a few hundred miles on them so far and they perform well.
