Coker Classic Redline tires are perfect for muscle cars as well as some import applications. Redline Radial tires combine muscle car-era styling with the smooth comfortable ride of a long-lasting radial tire. DOT and ECE (European Union) approved, with an all-season tread design and backed by our life of the tread warranty. Please note that dimensions listed tread width, section width and overall diameter are non-scientific and based on an inflated tire, mounted on a wheel. Dimensions may vary due to rim width and inflation pressure.
This product features a genuine redline sidewall style, sometimes known as a red stripe, due to the thin 3/8-inch strip rubber. This means that the red rubber is added directly to the tire sidewall during initial construction of the carcass, resulting in a truly integrated, high-quality product after vulcanization. Redline tires hit the American automobile market in 1964 with the introduction of the Pontiac GTO and remained a popular muscle car tire until around 1970. Dual redline tires (two red stripes) were an option on Ford Mustangs, and are now reproduced in original bias ply, bias look radial as well as radial construction. Choose the redline that best fits your application.
S Speed Rated: Up to 112 mph (180 km/h). Often required OE for higher performance trim level classic automobiles.

Coker Tire was founded in 1958 and many years of our history has been focused on supplying the collector vehicle market with authentic tires. Coker Classic is our house brand, which is a favorite among car restorers and enthusiasts around the world. We were the first to develop the wide whitewall radial, and it's still one of our most popular product lines to this day. Coker Classic tires are offered in both bias ply and radial construction, using modern materials to ensure proper fitment and handling for your collector vehicle.
Coker Tire Company, established in 1958 by Harold Coker in Chattanooga, Tennessee, began as a tire and service center. Over time, under the leadership of Harold's son, Corky Coker, the company shifted its focus towards the antique tire market, dedicating four decades to developing this niche. This strategic move transformed Coker Tire into a leading provider of vintage-style tires for collector vehicles.
The company specializes in manufacturing and selling vintage-style tires, including brands like Michelin, Firestone, BF Goodrich, and Uniroyal, catering to the needs of automotive enthusiasts seeking authentic period-correct tires. By utilizing original, refurbished molds or creating new molds from original drawings, Coker Tire ensures that their products maintain the classic appearance while incorporating modern materials for improved performance and safety.
In addition to tires, Coker Tire offers a range of wheels and accessories suitable for various collector vehicles. Their inventory includes steel and wire wheels designed to replace worn-out OEM wheels for makes such as Chevrolet, Ford, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Mercury, Chrysler, Buick, and Volkswagen. They also provide custom wire wheels for hot rods and distribute products from brands like Rocket Racing Wheels and Dayton Wire Wheels.
