They stopped making them some time ago. Check the age.

Updraught,

You showed a link to the 600-19. These are the 500-19. Jegs says that Coker is waiting new stock to ship. They are back ordered.

McMimmcs, these are not radials but are H speed rated, which I think means good for 130 mph.

I am just wondering if anyone is running them.

I went to the Coker site and entered the product code. What came up was a Stahl sport radial that will fit the 30 31 Model A. It is a newly made tire. See link below. The price at Coker is much more than Jegs is charging which makes me suspicious. Plus the tire advertised by Jegs is not a radial.

The Comp V is good for 149 mph. Enough rubber for a Sunday outing.

They are a cross ply/bias tyre and Coker stopped making them with the introduction of the radial a long time ago. Back ordering is unlikely to do much good. I would believe what is on the Coker site rather than Jegs.
