I'm looking to buy Goodyear Red stripe bias ply tires. Where have you bought your reproduction Goodyear bias ply tires? Were you happy with the service and the quality of the tires? Would you recommend I use them?

The squared off look is great.  If you aren't accustomed to driving with bias ply tires, when you first run them you will encounter a lot of tire "squirm".  It will feel like the car is wandering all over the road but you get used to it.
Coker Tire is the place to go for repro tires imo.

I have Repro Redline bias plys on the R/T right now. They look dry rotted so I would like to get them replaced very soon.
They don't squirm too much. I absolutely LOVE the way bias plys look.
Does Coker sell Goodyears?

I know they offer a few red stripe tires but I'm not sure if Goodyear are one of the brands or not.

I buy the good years directly from Kelsey Tire. And I agree with you ,They drive just fine. The old tire design combined with the modern rubber compoud work great together.

I contacted Russell (Rusty) by PM. I am waiting on a shipping quote.
Has anyone dealt with Rusty? Any problems? His prices are close to 10% cheaper than Kelsey.
