15x?

 

Nice looking tires and radials are traditional, in France, where Michelin has made them since the 40’s. Oh, and I like Poutine as well.

 

Love my Diamondback Radials...great ride...

 

Looks Great

@4speed411 ,what size are these neat looking tyres?
As far as I know coker only does the pie crust radials in 15”. Diamondback has the market cornered.

 

Seems a few sets are getting miles on them now, curious if anyone that has them as had the excelsior’s previously and could compare them?

Those do look good. How much do they cost?

 

the website takes a while to figure out. I seem to recall them being $40 ish more a tire than firestone bias plies. Compared to the $100 ish more a tire for excelsiors.

 

I'm a little reluctant to try the Excelsior's as the tread is fairly aggressive, almost like a dirt/hill climb cycle. I'd be concerned as to how noisy they are on the highway.

The Diamondbacks have a street tire tread.

Some rows missing, but this is the best I could find for the price of the Auburn Deluxe radials without calling them. I've been looking for blackwall 700R15 or 820R15, and the price seems to be about the same between these and coker's bias ply offerings, not including tubes. The bottom radial tire squish/ flattening doesn't seem too noticeable on these either.

 

move talked to at least 50 people with the excelsiors and none have mentioned tire noise

 

Excelsiors don’t look any more aggressive than anything else? Diamond backs for comparison Seems the excelsiors have more cross sipping but but no more than a modern tire?

 

@Malcolm had probably gone threw more sets of the excelsiors than anyone else I know. I’m sure he could tell you if they are louder than anything else?

 

Looks good,
I’m going to check them out.

 

Excelsiors are not noisy.

 

Thank you very much ArtofHotRod!

 

Tire costs are unreal. Your new tires do look nice.

 

You think it's bad? We get to tack another 30% onto those prices up here.

 

Look nice. I'd buff off the word "radial", to not so easily give away to onlookers that they're radials.

 

Nobody cares

 

No noise on my DB
