IML: 2nd reply regarding 14" tires

["Jerry Chase" <chrysler62imperial@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm glad that Ernie Stepney reports good performance from his Coker's.   But 
I have to ask:  are
they worth the very high price over 'close', modern alternatives?   The 
Coker P235/75R14s cost
about 2.5 times the amount for a P225/75R14 from Goodyear or Cooper!
