tires for '60 4x4

Hi,

I need to pickup some new rubber for my 16" split rims.
I looked a little at Coker but '1960 chevy v8' = 4 ply car tires.
Previously mounted were 7.00 x 16 6 ply offroad tires

Where can I get the proper factory tire for the 1960 chevy apache k10 4x4?
Pretty sure I want biased, not radial.

Whitewalls or no?

Thanks

Check out tires-easy.com. I think they have what you are looking for in 7.50-16. Particularly the Deestone and Power King tires.

Hey zetan, You also might try Specialty Tire of America. Haven't bought from them but their products look good.

Coker STA Super Traxion 750-16

I'm not so sure I'd trust 50 year old split rims...

On a 4x4 they would be full of unstoppable "win".
