American Classic Radial | 2.375 Inch Whitewall | 235/70R16
235/70R16 American Classic Radial Wide Whitewall Tire
Remember the fabulous cars from the fifties that had upwards of three-inch wide whitewalls, sometimes even bigger? Those stylish tires with wide whitewalls have been extremely popular for classic car restorations as well as hot rod and custom builds ever since. Coker American Classic tires are made in the USA and they are DOT and ECE (European Community) approved and covered by Coker Tire Company's Life of the Tread warranty. Please note that dimensions listed (tread width, section width and overall diameter) are non-scientific and based on an inflated tire, mounted to a wheel. Dimensions may vary due to rim width and inflation pressure.
Genuine Wide 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. 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 was popular into the early sixties, eventually being replaced by narrow 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.
