The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Experience with Coker Excelsior 6.00-16 tires?

Adam/Mill Valley CA · 01-29-2023, 06:03 PM

I currently have bias ply Firestone 6.00-16 tires on my '36 pickup, these have been very satisfactory but are ageing out. I see that Coker lists the Firestone 6.00-16 at $241, but also has an Excelsior (blackwall) bias ply 6.00-16 listed at $128. Does anyone have experience with these latter tires, good or bad? I'd certainly prefer to pay $128 vs $241!
Thanks,

Adam
