Blackwall Tire
Since the introduction of carbon black rocked the tire industry, the original recipe for most tires has been a solid black sidewall. For classics and collector cars alike, it's hard to beat the no-nonsense appeal of a classic blackwall style tire. British sports car, classic truck and even hot rod enthusiasts love the way a nice period correct blackwall tire looks on their vehicles.
Bias Ply Construction
Bias ply tire construction is a method that was used from the 1900's through the 1970's on passenger cars and light trucks. Bias ply tires feature ply cords that run at a 45 degree angle to the bead, and overlap in a crisscross pattern, depending on how many ply layers are used. This creates a strong tire, but bias ply tires have a tendency to follow breaks or ruts in the pavement. Bias ply tires are the most authentic choice for classic car restorations and traditional hot rod builds. Coker Tire offers a huge variety of bias ply tires for many applications.
Pro-Trac Street Pro Front Runner Tires
Pro Trac Street Pro Front Runners are period correct front tires for ‘70s street machine builds, ‘60s gassers and even vintage T-Buckets. These tires feature an authentic bias ply construction and look great on the front of Day 2 muscle cars.
Pro-Trac- Brand Tires
The iconic Pro-Trac brand bias Ply tires were born on ‘70s street machines and Pro Street builds. Famously a groovy day Two option for serious enthusiasts of the era. The brand now offers both original bias ply fitments and innovative new ultra-high performance radials with all of the classic day two style that made the brand a street legend.

Frequently Asked Questions
Fitment & Compatibility â–¼
How does the Pro-Trac Front Runner 215/75-15 affect front-end stance and rake? â–¼
The 27.8 inch overall diameter of the Pro-Trac Front Runner 215/75-15 creates a taller front profile compared to many modern low-profile radials. When paired with oversized rear tires, it produces the classic nose-up Pro Street rake.
This taller front height can subtly influence suspension geometry and weight transfer. It may slightly raise the front ride height, which can improve visual balance but may require alignment adjustments. Builders focused on aggressive rake should consider this diameter carefully relative to rear tire size.
Tire Size Equivalents & Conversions â–¼
What bias ply sizes are equivalent to the Pro-Trac Front Runner 215/75-15? â–¼
The Pro-Trac Front Runner 215/75-15 aligns with several traditional bias ply sizes including 7.10-15, G78-15, G70-15, and even 8.25-15 depending on application. These equivalents help builders match period-correct sizing while using a modern labeled format.
Because bias ply sizing varies by manufacturer, the 27.8 inch diameter is the most reliable comparison metric. Some equivalents may be slightly taller or wider, so checking actual dimensions is critical when replacing original equipment tires.
How does the Pro-Trac Front Runner 215/75-15 compare to 710-15 bias ply sizing? â–¼
The Pro-Trac Front Runner 215/75-15 closely aligns with 710-15 bias ply sizing in terms of overall diameter and general fitment. Both sizes fall within a similar height range, making them interchangeable in many classic applications.
However, exact section width and tread profile can vary. The Pro-Trac version is optimized for a front runner application, so its contact patch is narrower and more focused on straight-line stability rather than full vehicle load support.
Performance & Use Case â–¼
How will the Pro-Trac Front Runner 215/75-15 perform on the street compared to radial tires? â–¼
The Pro-Trac Front Runner 215/75-15 is DOT approved and designed for street use, offering safe operation in both dry and wet conditions. However, its bias ply construction means it behaves differently from modern radial tires.
Drivers should expect more sensitivity to road grooves and less directional stability at highway speeds. Steering corrections may be more frequent, especially on uneven pavement. This is typical of bias ply tires and aligns with the authentic driving feel of vintage builds.
Construction, Durability & Load Capacity â–¼
What type of construction does the Pro-Trac Front Runner 215/75-15 use and how does it affect durability? â–¼
The Pro-Trac Front Runner 215/75-15 uses bias ply construction with POLY and fiberglass materials. This creates a strong structure that is well suited for classic builds and straight-line stability.
Bias ply tires are durable in terms of structural strength but can wear differently than radials. They are more sensitive to heat buildup and require proper inflation to maintain longevity, especially during highway use.
How should the Pro-Trac Front Runner 215/75-15 be balanced during installation? â–¼
The Pro-Trac Front Runner 215/75-15 should be dynamically balanced during installation to minimize vibration. Bias ply tires may require more attention to achieve smooth operation.
Some variation is normal due to construction, but proper balancing helps improve ride quality. Rebalancing may be needed if vibration develops over time.
Installation & Maintenance â–¼
Does the Goodyear Cycle Grasshopper 300-16 tire require special mounting considerations? â–¼
Mounting the Goodyear Cycle Grasshopper 300-16 requires careful handling due to its New Old Stock condition. Older rubber compounds can be more sensitive to stress, so excessive force during mounting should be avoided.
It is recommended to use proper tire mounting tools or professional installation to prevent damage to the bead or sidewall. Even though the tire is for display only, careful mounting helps preserve its condition and ensures it looks correct once installed.
