This isn't good. The classic muscle car tire--the BFG Radial T/A with raised white letters--seems to have either been discontinued or is in the process of being discontinued.
Sizes available are FAR fewer than before, and of those sizes left, many of them are on backorder nationwide with no expected arrival date.
This is terrible, I am looking for P215/65R15 for my Camaro.
However, it appears that Coker has picked up the line and is reproducing them. I know they make all the old PolyGlass GT/bias ply/redline repros, etc., and to my understanding they are VERY accurate reproductions even if the guts inside the tire are modern.
So I'm curious:
1) Can anyone speak to the quality of Coker's reproduction tires as compared to originals in terms of appearance
2) Has anyone run a set of the Radial T/A in raised white letter from Coker?
