Default Coker redlines question

Anyone running BF Goodrich radial redlines on a driver? Would you advise for or against them? Like the looks but don't want to spend big bucks on so so tires. Thanks, Mick

I just bought a set of 245/60 redlines for my 69 from diamondback.

I have been overseas for the past week and will hopefully get them installed on the car in the next few days.

Will post some pics for you.

The car is not going to be a daily driver, but will hopefully still get some use. A bit expensive, but I really like the redline look. My car is Lemans blue.

I had the Coker redlines on a Brand X I don't own anymore. I had no complaints with them.

I also have Diamondback redlines made Cooper Cobra's on another car...again...no complaints.

The Diamondbacks are expensive but you have tire choises and you do get what you pay for. I have a friend that just had a set of OEM Goodyears done for his 750 RWHP Shelby and he couldn't be happier with the quality of the redwall installation.
