agree with Ron totally . Classics are Only way to go . I am surprised Coker keeps making the others . Trailer queen tires.
I Made the same mistake very early on . Since then I have bought 5-6 sets of Classics — no real issues , one tire had a bad whitewall damage / fit to carcass . They replaced it . Look carefully when opening .
I run Michelin high end blackwalls on 15” up , 8 “ rims if expecting to drive it like a 300 though , — always a trade ...

For a number of years, I've heard from many people that Coker branded radial
tires were junk. Hard to balance. Failures after a few thousand miles due to
belt separation. Other problems. Coker does sell a line of tires called
American Classics which are very good. I have them on two of my cars and
have been very happy with them. You may be able to get American Classics
from other distributors as well.

I purchased 5 new 235/75 radials from Coker for my 300C. After
installation, the car was "all over the road" as you described. It was
unmanageable.
I pretty much knew it was the tires because the car drove fine before
installation. I took the car to my local tire dealer and he did a run-out
test on their balancer. The tires were all out of round.
To be fair, Coker took the tires back, paid shipping both ways and sent me
a good set. My problem solved !
My tire guy recommended next time ordering Coker tires thru a local
dealer.
A lot of hassle could be eliminated and not for really much more $ if any.

Hi As a new member and owner of a 300 I have many questions. First
I hope I am doing this right? I have a steering problem in that I
can't hardly control the car as it's all over the road. New Coker
radials. Where do I start figuring out the problem? Dave
