I am cruising the net to see if there are any (new manufacture) Goodyear Custom Wide Tread red streak tires available. I did locate a site called universal tire and had them for $210.00 each (F70X14). Any other resources other than Coker?

Ha, just don't try to drive the car with them on. It will find every groove in the road. They track terrible.

Ain't that the truth; I had a set of them on when I bought the car and when it hit a groove in the road you had to fight to keep it going where you wanted the car to go.

I am just looking for a reasonable set to sell with the RR and get it as close to original as I can. Not in a hurry to sell. Came with F70X14 Red Streak Goodyears and dog dish hubcaps

Mine was a bear to drive; although I never really had the alignment checked before I changed them. I've driven MOPARS since 60 and have had good luck with the majority of the older style tires. Maybe they were a cheap reproduction tire ( firestone wide oval)

Maybe I was a little harsh....I've never driven a muscle car WITH radial tires in the last 15 years...maybe you just get used to it if you don't know any different

Difference between night and day. Hey I emailed Kelsey and he said the best he could do is $200.00 per tire.

Its not the tires its people over-inflate the bias plys.
You cannot pump them up to 35 psi...they are best at 22 to 25 psi. Sometimes ypu have to experiment.
30+ PSI you will have balloooooooned out the tire and you might as well be running bicycle tires

I just got these from Diamondback Tires about two weeks ago. These are BF Goodrich Radial T/A and they buffed the lettering down on the back side and vulcanize the red stripe on. 225-70R15

does anyone make a modern tire, for a 17" rim, thats at least a 255 width, and preferably, 28-29 inches tall?

not that I'm being picky or anything.

I just think red line tires would look pretty good on my big block Dakota with the black rims, hood pins, and lil red express decals.

Check out Diamondback tires at http://www.dbtires.com/pricelist_17.htm
If you can't find exactly what you are looking for then give them a call.
Good Luck...
