Default What is your impression of the repro redline tires?

Should they be placed on the car, if you are interested in driving a few times per week in the spring and summer?
Or reserved for the shows?

You can buy the repro redlines from Coker Tire in Tennessee. I bought a set of their narrow white stripes a few months ago and was surprised at how well the car drove with them on. NOT as nice as with my street radials, but nice. A friend recently bought a set of redline radials, also from Coker. These are no an original design. He hasn't put them on his 67 yet, so I haven't gotten a report as to how they "drive". Chuck
