Coker Tire

[RustyRatRod]

I spoke with Coker Tire last week. I inquired about the Wheel Vintiques (their company) plain steel wheels in the 5x4" pattern. I was told to fill out a new product request and to pass that information on. So I did. He said that if there are enough requests they will make them again. I requested the 5x4" plain steel 14 and 15 inch wheels in widths from 6" to 8". I wish some of y'all would do it too. Maybe they will make them again if there's enough interest. It only takes about 1 minute.

Done.

As info, I have a set of these on my 66 Valiant that I bought a while ago. They are excellent so I hope they start making them again.

 

[eekvonzipper]

Done, Took Two minutes! Lol
14" Forever!

 

[Leanin'Dart270]

Done.

So is your next item of business to submit a new product request with a tire manufacturer to make some real tires in 14" and 15"?

I hate big diameter wheels, but the tires mostly suck in 14 and 15.

Well we DO have options. Between BF Goodrich, Cooper and Galaxy Vitour, we have pretty good 14 and 15 coverage.

Ive spoken to a few suppliers about those rims, all those clueless ones I spoke to said. "NEVER AGAIN". Then all of a sudden Jegs n Summit were offering them again, so I got my 2 fronts.
Clowns dont appear to know anything about these rims...Coker, Summit, Jegs....spoke with all 3...

Summit is showing 16 15x6 4inch bolt pattern steelies now.

Coker is the parent company. They own Wheel Vintiques. My estimation is, if you spoke to someone at Coker, you probably didn't go high enough in the food chain. lol Most entry level phone answerers as you say are indeed slap clueless. And that's really a bad thing for companies, because they are the first line of customer service.

If you want 15s, that's great. I don't.

 

[4spdragtop]

I know Coker is the "owner", whomever i spoke to "sounded" like they knew what was going on lol. The only.reason I knew Jegs had them was someone on here posted it, thankfully.

Your title should say, help save small bolt pattern wheels. Thanks for starting it.

You said 14's or 15's, maybe someone else wants 15's.

I'm glad you found some. This may not make a difference, but all we can do is try.

Exactly why I included them. The world don't revolve around me. lol

 

[Jeff Seighman]

No, it would surenuff be nice if they made some 14 inchers for you guy's that want them whether the world revolves around you or not And I requested some 14inchers, hopefully they'll get some stamped out for you guys.

[JDMopar]

I heard somebody call them Temu tires!
Birdsong didn't badmouth them though....so they might be worth a try.
