Firestone Steel Belted 721 |.75 Inch Whitewall | LR78-15
Firestone Steel Belted 721 LR78-15 3/4" Whitewall Tire
The Firestone 721 steel belted radial tire was original equipment on many full size sedans from the 1970s. Coker Tire is proud to offer the LR78-15 size, which is perfect for 1971 through 1979 Cadillac, Lincoln and other full size American classics. This new radial tire features the original tread design, sidewall lettering and 3/4-inch whitewall, offering authentic looks and modern radial performance. These Firestone radials are made in the USA and they are thoroughly tested to exceed DOT regulations.
Genuine Narrow Whitewall Tire
Typically wide whitewalls run all the way to the bead. Narrow whitewalls will stop somewhere before the bead, resulting in a narrower band of exposed white rubber. The bright white rubber is added directly to the tire sidewall during initial construction of the carcass, resulting in a truly integrated, high-quality product after vulcanization. This style became popular in the early sixties, eventually replacing wide whitewalls altogether.S Speed Rating
S Speed Rated: Up to 112 mph (180 km/h). Often required OE for higher performance trim level classic automobiles.
Bias Look Radial Tire
The term "bias look radial" is something that Coker Tire created when we introduced the American Classic bias look radial product line. This means the tire has the appearance and the sizing profiles of a vintage bias ply tire, with modern radial construction. This provides an original look with a smooth ride and longer tread life, compared to bias ply tires. We offer bias look radial tires for vehicles ranging from the 1920's through the 1970's.
Firestone Wide Oval Radial>/H2>
We designed the Wide Oval Radial for muscle car enthusiasts who wanted the authentic look and style of a bias ply tire, and choose to drive their classic muscle machine often. This tire combines the best of both worlds.
Firestone Tires for Collector Vehicles
Coker Tire is proud to offer authentic Firestone tires for a wide range of cars, trucks and motorcycles built from the 1900's through the 1970's.
