I'd be interested to know if you got them direct from Coker or from one of the re-sellers like Jeggs, Summit or ??

I bought it all from JEGS. I spent days trying to get the preferred tube. Finally JEGS was able to come up with the proper tube for the 55R19 Excelsior Radial tire. The correct tube part number is 257-86431 The 257 indicates that it is a Coker part number. 86431 is the actual tube part number. This is the Radial tube. JEGS was the least expensive Coker wanted about 136$ for shipping. JEGS only wanted the 9.99 FedX charge for only one tire. I think it was Summit that wanted 9.99 each for the four tires.

The cost was 271 for tires times 4
45 for tubes times 4
9.99 for freight times 1 total for all four is 1273.99
