I'd (will be) be looking at cheap radials to run on the 16"ers. JMO

I am still waiting to hear why I shouldn't buy tires from Lucas?

Lucas sells good tires IMHO.

I had bad luck with Coker tires, and very good luck with Diamondback tires. Back in the 1960's we switched to 16" wheels because tires were so much cheaper than 17" 18" 19" or 21" tires. I bought 4 new Monkey Wards for $48. installed. I still run 16" on all my old Fords.

Bought my new Cokers from their store here in town. I hear a rumor that they've closed & moved to L.A??????

I have indeed had good luck from Coker and Lucas. In my opinion you get what you pay for. Be prepared to deal with the downside because price is not everything !

Somehow radial tires and model A are like an oxymoron to me...
