Coker and Diamondback make them. There are probably other suppliers. Just Google 'Vintage Tires Redlines' and see what comes up.

I have purchased redlines for my 68 and gold lines for my 65 from Diamondback. Great to deal with. The tires look and perform great. They even balance properly

If you want the best reproduction get them At www.kelseytire.com under their performance tab.

The only difference between the original and reproduction is the reproduction has a D.O.T. stamp.

Best tire for judging, etc.

The ride on a bias nylon belted tire is terrible. So make sure what you want overhaul before you purchase.
