Coker Tire 518106 Excelsior Roadster 700R16 Bias-Look Radial Tire Wide Whitewall

The Excelsior Roadster bias-look radial tire is designed to provide the traditional look of a bias ply tire while offering the smooth ride of a modern radial. Available in wide whitewall and traditional black sidewalls, the new tire is aesthetically right for restored antique cars, survivors, hot rods, luxury sedans, classic trucks and more. This 700R16 size features a 3.8-inch (approximately 4.00 inch) wide whitewall that delivers authentic vintage styling.

Key Features:

• Traditional zigzag tread with subtle siping to evacuate water without distracting from the vintage appearance
• Modern materials and construction techniques give this tire a smooth ride quality and increased tread life, compared to bias ply tires
• The narrow tread and tall sidewall perfectly replicate the appearance of an original bias ply tire with a piecrust shoulder and vintage-style sidewall lettering
• Official tire of the Grand National Roadster Show with the GNRS emblem on its distinctive sidewall
• DOT approved for road use with genuine radial construction

Excelsior Roadster tires require a tube, due to the wheels of the era, which are not airtight. Coker Tire offers heavy-duty tubes with proper valve hardware for most applications. 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. Perfect for 1930s through 1950s American cars and trucks, as well as hot rod applications.
