I am sure that it has been answered before but I am looking for a place to buy original style tires for my 55 F-100. That isn't corker tire, Im looking for a better price. if there isn't one, let me know.

I was going to recommend coker until I read your thread lol...

I am not aware of anyone making original style tires other than coker, and for what its worth, coker makes very nice products

 

IMHO Coker tires are fairly priced for low volume market tires.

 

There are also Specialty Tire of America (STA) tires that are sold through Universal Tire, Miller Tire, and Lucas Tire. Then there's also Diamond Back Tire. Stu

 

About 2 years ago I got some bias ply tires (6.00 x 16) from a local tire shop. They are the Excelsior brand. I called around 5 or tire shops until I found a guy locally that could get them.

Get on your phone. You should be able to get them.

 

stay away from cheng shangs!!!

 

Thanks everyone for the replays. I know Corker makes good stuff, I was just hoping to get some other options and I did, thanks again. I will probably get some cheaper bias tires first so I can move the project around without inflating them first.

 

I don't know exactly what you're saying here but if the truck is still in the build stage or is a while till road ready, just put anything on it to move it. New tires are one of the last things you want to buy as tires do have a shelf life.

And BTW, welcome to the forum.

Not sure about cheaper but here's my list:
Bias Ply
Lucas Classic Tires

m. e. MILLER tire
Light Truck Bias Ply Tires

Radials

WHITEWALL TIRES

 

I found Coker to be the cheapest recently. Just find a dealer with good pricing. My last set was from Jegs. Universal also has good pricing.

 

Here is a closeup pic of my bias ply that I got from a local tire shop:


I am not sure of the price anymore but they were cheaper than Coker and I didn't have to pay shipping.

 

Unfortunately if you want original size WWW Corky has some of us by the nutz !!!
