Re: [Chrysler300] Coker tires

[John <spiers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

When I was a teenager in the 1970s, I had a 360HP 300-K coupe (no sway bar) on Goodyear Custom Power Cushion bias ply tires (H78-14) and a 1963 Newport four-door on economy radials (GR78-14, I recall).
 
The Newport leaned more in the corners, but on those radials, it handled better at all speeds than the 300-K on the bias ply tires.

Mark, 

I can't believe that a 64 Sport handels better than a H! - I've drived one. 

I have Cooper 235/75/R15 narrow whites on both of my H's and they handel great.

I have those Hancook P225-70R-14 whitewall tires on my 64 300 and the car handles better than my 300H. I paid $95 each at my local tire store. I have driven the car about 600 miles on them including the trip to Carlisle, with no problems. There's probably a total of 3 oz. of weights over all 4 tires. One tire took no weights at all. BTW, this car is still for sale.

Hi All, 
? 
As an alternative for 14 inch tires, you may consider this one. 
Hancook P225-70R-14. ? They are sold through Discount Tire. 
There are a couple other brands listed too for that size. 
? 
I would be curious to hear comments about the size difference vs. OEM. 
These should hold the road better due the shorter side wall?

I just took a look on Coker's web site and it appears they are still selling the 
235/75R14 radials in both 1" & 2.5" whitewalls. The price is now up to $228.00 
ea (UGH). 

Hey!! Somebody's gotta pay for their screw ups!!! Right??? 

Well guess who gets elected !!!
