Avon Traction Mileage 6.00-16C 97/94L Tire

If you're working on a vintage off-road vehicle like a Land Rover Series I, II or III, the Avon Traction Mileage tire is a perfect fit. This example is offered in 600-16, an exact size used on many classic 4x4 trucks. This particular tire is authentic for the short wheelbase Land Rover , but looks great on classic Chevy, Ford or Dodge pickups as an aggressive all terrain style tire. Compared to modern radials, these tires feature a narrow tread pattern, which not only looks authentic, but also provides much lighter steering feel so that you're not arm wrestling your steering wheel at parking lot speed.

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.
