Default Any one using new Auburn tires.

I am considering buying 4 Diamond Back Auburn 600-16 tires. I would be replacing worn Coker classic radials. I like the Cokers but I would prefer tubeless tires. I do not wish to run Cokers tubeless. Any input is appreciated.

A friend of mine just put 6.00x16 Diamond Back Auburn tires on his '35 sedan. They look fine with the "pie crust" look also. He does run tubes in them as well. I have Diamond Back radials on a '47 Tudor. I like them.

Thanks Seth. I am going to try a set. They are nice looking tires. They are for my Model A Tudor with 35 wheels.

I have them but was disappointed to see they came from a foreign country. They are nice no doubt about that and a nice ride too.

I just put a set on my 40 Woodie and it drives like a new car. So far I am happy with them. I replaced the Ford Script double white walls I had on the car for judging. I must say the Cokers didn't wear very well.
