I just bought a pair of DB's to replace POS Cokers on the front of my R/T. Mine use BFG Radial T/A as a base. It looks like they buff off the raised lettering and apply their sidewall. These new tires took hardly any weight to balance. The old Cokers took gobs of weight. I had the plies separate on one of them with about 4000 miles on it. Coker builds their own tires using old BFG Silverstone molds. I don't think they are very good at it.
I have to admit, I don't know the answer to this question. I just told them want I wanted - Redline Radials - and the specific style. In this case, I ordered their Diamondback SS tires. They are 15" tires (215/70R15).
