All white firestone tires are available again

Post by vech » Fri Sep 16, 2022 11:08 am

A day or two ago, Coker tire notified me that they finally have white clincher tires back in stock.
I had a set back ordered for over a year. They are now in transit to me.
I thought I would inform those that are interested, that they are available again.

Granted, they were New OLD Stock, but never again. White tires are just so much more delicate than black that I would rather be incorrect than go down that road again. I've used elderly black tires too, and they weren't devoured by country roads like those Firestone whites.
The inevitable often happens.
