New tires?

[Paul Boucher]

So I blew a tire on the way back from Petty's Car Show and found my tires are rotted. I ordered BF Goodrich Radial T/As but my dad just called tonight and said he would chip in on Redlines. What would look best on a gold car? I am leaning towards Redlines. It's not too late to cancel the Radial T/As.

I vote redlines....

Redlines were OEM for those cars and would look nice with your paint.

Yeah for the most part I like the ol' white letter look but I would do the redlines on that beauty for sure..

How long did it take to get the taste of rotted rubber out of your mouth?

Well after changing the tire on the side of the highway, at least the remaining 3 hours it took to get the tow truck there and get home! I was so mad I could spit.

Yeah so I have made the decision to go with redlines. I mean I feel I really kind of have to go with them (see pics). I called the tire shop to see if they can call Coker or Diamondback and leverage the fact they are a tire distributor to see if they could get them at a discount. I told them I would pay the same as buying direct. They gave me a great price on the Radial T/As (blew everyone else out of the water), had them delivered to the store, and didn't squawk when I told them I wanted to switch. I figured I would let them try to still make a little money on the deal if they could. Just waiting for them to call me back. I am super excited. With the other mechanical things I need to do, I really didn't want to spring for the extra $500 to go with redlines, but know that it means a lot to my dad for him to offer to help. So next question, what is the difference between Coker and Diamondback BFG redlines? other than $10 per tire?

Red lines look good on any car, good choice !!!

I agree good choice, I will need new tires soon. What were the radial T/A's running price wise.?

LOL

Seriously though those tires will add to the classy look of that Dodge..

I like the redlines too. Too pricey for me. Running Cooper Cobras. They are American made and have the 295's for the rear. Inexpensive. Relatively.
