Re: [Chrysler300] Coker Tires

[Lindsey Fuller <yesdnil@xxxxxxx>]

I have driven my F to 4 300 meets ( both clubs ), all over 1000 miles 
each way. 2 were on bias plies & 2 were on Cokers. 1) I would never go 
back to bias 2) I have had no trouble with the Cokers, including the 
dragstrip @ Columbus. Total mileage about 7500 in whatever the number of 
years since the club was key to getting the 14" tires produced. Have 
installed a set on my E, but no driving time yet. I heard a few weeks 
ago that Coker has stopped making the 14's for our cars? Anyone else 
heard similar?
