Default Coker tire bender shout out!

Coker Tire had a sale on 7.50-17 traction tires. Basically, they had traction tires available for my application (1952 MH all wheell drive). Got excited when I came home from work and saw the tire on my driveway. Problem was, it was highway tread. A call to Coker, and problem resolved, at no cost to me. Just posting this to give credit where credit is due…

Title should say Coker tire vender

Would love to see a picture of the truck AND the 7.50 x 17 tractions? Are they Tornels?

They are Tornels. AFAIK, the only game in town for traction type tires in that size.
