Excelsior Tires offer beautiful European styling and design in an extensive range of beaded edge and straight side wall sizes. Excelsior tires feature durable nylon cord construction. These tires feature authentic antique tire tread designs and sidewall markings and are an excellent choice for antique restorations. Please note that dimensions listed tread width, section width and overall diameter are non-scientific and based on an inflated tire, mounted on a wheel. Dimensions may vary due to rim width and inflation pressure.
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.
Excelsior Vintage Tires and Excelsior Vintage Race Tires
Excelsior tires feature vintage race designs in DOT approved tires that are excellent for restored race cars, hot rods and custom builds. The Excelsior Stahl Sport Radial is an incredibly popular vintage race-styled tire with a completely modern radial tire construction inside. The Stahl Sport Radial is extremely popular with hot rodders who love to drive their cars, both for their stylish good looks and for their long-wearing performance on the road.
