Here are my new Coker 215/70R15. They did cost an arm and a leg however, I see them as not just a tire to drive around on but an accessory that makes the car look better. Costs were: $912 with shipping, plus $140 for mounting, balancing and valve stems. Total cost $1,052. I plan on replacing them every six years, so that makes my monthly cost of these good looking and safe tires to be $14.61 a month. Totally worth it in my humble opinion.

$1052 wow! That's what it cost me to put tires on 3 cars and my truck plus replace a truck tire when a valve stem broke on the freeway, and have enough left over for lunch. And they call Studebaker owners CASO! Not from where I stand.

All this talk of Ford wheels will kill someone! IF YOU USE A FORD WHEEL USE FORD LUG NUTS!!!!! They are larger and are made for the larger hole in the Ford rim. Studebaker lug nuts are too small and won't seat properly. Dangerous combination espesially if you try to dodge that skunk in the road.
